Q504

Enzyme pair common to both EMP and C3 cycle is

A.
Aldolase and enolase
B.
Aldolase and triose phosphate isomerase
Answer
C.
Phosphoglyceromutase and triose phosphate isomerase
D.
Cytochrome oxidase and enolase

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Enzyme pair common to both EMP and C3 cycle is Aldolase and triose phosphate isomerase.
The TPI1 gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called triose phosphate isomerase 1. This enzyme is involved in a critical energy-producing process known as glycolysis.
Aldolase is one of the nonregulated enzymes comprising the Calvin cycle and is predicted to have the potential to control photosynthetic carbon flux through the cycle.
