Questions  

Identify the step which shows neither phosphorylation nor dephosphorylation during glycolysis.

a
Conversion of glucose to glucose-6- phosphate
b
Conversion of frusctose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
c
Conversion of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
d
Conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvic acid

detailed solution

Correct option is C

The enzyme fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase, often called simply aldolase, catalyzes a reversible aldol condensation. Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is cleaved to yield two different triose phosphates, glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate, an aldose, and dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a ketose.
