Secure take D Question 3 1 pts The second reaction of the coupled reaction involves the enzyme Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate Dehydrogenase. This reaction is a condensation reaction in which an inorganic phosphate is transferred onto the other reactant and results in the production of 1,3 BPG and water 3 BPG This reaction has a positive delta G of +12 kcal/mol. Based on this information and the diagram above, what can you conclude about this reaction? Mark ALL of the correct statements This is a thermodynamically favorable reaction G This s an endothermic reaction This is an example of a redox reaction This is an example of substrate level phosphorylation None of the above answers are correct 20 999Explanation / Answer
This is an endothermic reaction - This is a non - spontaneous reaction, where energy is absorbed, hence delta G is positive. This is an example of substrate level phosphorylation - This is a step in glycolysis where, the energy released from oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is used to transfer the phosphoryl group from inorganic phosphate to produce 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. The attachment of phosphoryl group to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is called as phosphorylation.
