'Suppose you discovered a mutant yeast strain whose glycolytic pathway was shorter because of the presence of a new enzyme catalyzing the reaction: Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate +NAD+ 5 3- phosphoglycerate NADH What effect would shortening the glycolytic pathway in this way have on the cell under anaerobic conditions? What would probably happen to this cell (compare anaerobic to aerobic)? Explain your answer:'

Step 1
Under normal conditions, the glycolytic pathway consists of several steps, and the conversion of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) to 3-phosphoglycerate (3PG) involves two steps: Show more…
