Which metabolic pathway is common to both cellular respiration and fermentation?
The glycolytic pathway is common to both fermentation and cellular respiration. During the course of the metabolic pathway, glucose is broken down to pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen, the pyruvate molecule becomes involved in the TCA cycle. In the absence of oxygen however, fermentation occures. The process is brought about by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase.
Is it true that PEP is a feedback inhibitor of Phosphofructokinase?
No, it is not true. PEP, or phosphoenolpyruvate, is actually a substrate for phosphofructokinase (PFK), a key enzyme in glycolysis. PEP is converted to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate by PFK, which is an important step in the glycolytic pathway.
In Sugarcane how Starch is converted into Glucose?
by malate aspartate pathway
Cell structure that produces ATP energy molecules?
Some ATP is produced by the glycolytic pathway which is located in the cytoplasm. Most is synthesized by the protein ATP synthase, which is found in the mitochondrion.
Can cell membrane mannose be used for adherence?
Yes it can. In fact, this is specifically the target of Type 1 Fimbriae. Many pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae posses this kind of Fimbriae as a virulence factor. These Fimbriae contain receptor domains similar to the MBL (Mannose Binding Lectin) present in blood plasma. The difference is that the human MBL recognizes the pathogen's Mannose residues and can initiate the MB-Lectin pathway, activating the complement cascade. This leads to pathogen opsonization. Cheers.
What pathway is phosphofructokinase involved in?
Glycolytic and TCA cycle
The lectin pathway for complement action is initiated by?
mannose on the parasite

The first forms of life that produced ATP probably used pathways similar to what?
ATP/CP Pathway, Glycolytic Pathway, Oxidative Pathway
How is lactose catabolized via the glycolytic pathway?
Lactose is metabolized by the enzyme beta-galactosidase giving one molecule of galactose and one molecule of glucose.

Is Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis?
Yes. Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis. This molecule contains three carbons. For every molecule of glucose that enters the glycolytic pathway, two molecules of pyruvate are formed
The energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds in a series of linked chemical reactions called a?
biochemical pathway
When a sportsman runs he get muscle cramps why?
