What is the role of the pentose phosphate pathway?

Overview

• NADPH productionGlutathione reduction (E), fatty acid/cholesterol synthesis (L)

• Glycolytic intermediatesFructose-6-phosphate, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate

• Ribose-5-phosphateNucleotide synthesis (nucleated cells)

Review Questions

• What are the main functions of the

pentose phosphate pathway?

• Which enzymes produce NADPH?

• Which intermediates can feed back

into the glycolytic pathway?
