(1995 Exam 3 Question 1, 15 points) Indicate the enzymatic reaction sequence that could account for the overall transformation summarized in the equation shown below. There is no need to include structural formulas in your answer. But please name the enzyme that catalyzes each of the proposed reactions. Note that NADP is not involved. 3 Glucose-6-P ATP Ribose-5-P Erythrose-4-P ADP Recitation 9 Page 1 of 6

(1994 Exam 3 Question, 0 points) Suppose you have an organism that is capable of converting one mol of fructose-6-p and one mol of the sugar whose structure is shown below to one mol of ribulose-5-p and one mol of glucose-6-p. Two enzymes similar to those that operate in the pentose cycle are used in this overall transformation. Please use structural formulas to show the mechanism of this overall conversion.

4 7.05 Spring 004 April 3, (1994 Exam 3 Question 1, 30 points) Assume that an organism capable of engaging in photosynthesis has been mutagenized so that lysine resides present at the active sites of enzyme have been replaced by other amino acids (i.e., these enzymes are inactive). During photosynthesis, this organism was observed to be able to carry out the following overall transformation: 3 ATP NADP fructose-6-p 3 ADP Pi NADP ribose-5-p (?) Propose a set of enzymatic reactions, known to occur in organisms capable of photosynthesis, to account for this overall transformation and identify the product (and how much) designated as a question mark in the equation.
