Give one example for each of the following classes of enzymes and the complete reaction they catalyze from Glycolysis , Gluconeogenesis or Pentose phosphate pathway.
(i) Oxidoreductase
(ii) Lyase
(iii) Isomerase
(iv) Transferase
(v) Ligase
(i) Oxidoreductase
Example - Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
Glyceraldehyde-3phosphate + NAD+ + Pi 1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate + NADH + H+
(ii) Lyase
Example - Aldolase
Fructose - 1,6 - biphosphate Dihydroxyacetone phosphate + Gyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
(iii) Isomerase
Example - Triosephosphate isomerase
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate Gyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
(iv) Transferase
Example - Transketolase
Ribose -5- phosphate + Xylulose -5- Phosphate Gyceraldehyde-3-phosphate + Sedoheptulose -7- phosphate
(v) Ligase
Example - Pyruvate caroxylase
Pyruvate + ATP Oxaloacetate + ADP + Pi
