Explain how NAD+ can be re-generated under anaerobic conditions in yeast and in humans during glycolysis?
Added by James L.
Step 1
In this process, NAD+ is converted into NADH. Under anaerobic conditions, pyruvate is converted into either ethanol or lactate, depending on the organism. In yeast, pyruvate is converted into ethanol, while in humans, it is converted into lactate. Show more…
