Which process is NOT a metabolic fate for pyruvate in liver tissue?
a) transamination to alanine
b) carboxylation to oxaloacetate
c) reduction to lactate
d) oxidative decarboxylation to acetyl-CoA
e) phosphorylation to phosphoenolpyruvate

Respuesta :

Answer:

e) phosphorylation to phosphoenolpyruvate

Explanation:

phosphoenol pyruvate is not the fate of the pyruvate . pyruvate can convert into the phosphoenole pyruvate in the reverse of the glycolysis which will utilize the ATP . So , this can not be the fate of pyruvate because in the breakdown of the glucose through glycolysis pyruvate is the end product and phosphoenol pyruvate is the intermediate .
