Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Phosphofructokinase-1 is used in the glycolysis pathway to convert fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. However, in fructose metabolism, fructose is converted to fructose-1-phosphate by fructokinase and aldolase B, and then to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde by aldolase B. These two compounds can enter the glycolysis pathway and be metabolized without the use of phosphofructokinase-1. The other enzymes listed are used in the glycolysis pathway and are not specific to fructose metabolism.
