Which statement regarding the overall pentose phosphate pathway is false? It is a mitochondrial pathway. It allows interconversi
on of hexoses and pentoses. The extent to which glucose‑6‑phosphate is used by glycolysis versus the pentose phosphate pathway is largely regulated by [NADP+]/[NADPH]. When both phases of the pathway are combined, the primary product is NADPH.
A mitochondrial pathway also known as intrinsic pathway perform major role in apoptosis. Apoptosis is the death of cells occurring as a normal or controlled part of growth or development in organisms. While Penrose phosphate pathway is a parallel pathway to glycolysis.
