Question
NADP+ is reduced to NADPH in
Options
A.HMP
B.Calvin cycle
C.glycolysis
D.EMP
Solution
Pentose phosphate pathway or Hexose Monophosphate Shunt (HMP) or phospogluconate pathway occurs in the cytosol of mammalian cells. It involves oxidation of glucose to CO2 and water through a series of reactions in which NADP is reduced to NADPH. Complete breakdown of one molecule of glucose forms 12 NADPH equal to 36 ATP molecules.
