What is the goal of the pentose phosphate pathway, explain.

Biology
1 answer:
uranmaximum [27]4 years ago
6 0

Answer: Pentose phosphate pathway produces ribose-5-phosphate sugars that are used in the production of DNA and RNA molecules.

Explanation: Pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol like glycolysis, with its end products being ribose-5-phosphate sugars and NADH used in production of RNA and DNA.

Difference between these pathways are that the pentose phosphate is anabolic. It uses alot of energy, NADPH and ATP for building. Unlike glycolysis its primary function is not energy production, which on the other hand glycolysis is catabolic, primarily leading to the the production of energy.

Explanation:

The epigenetics may be defined as the genetic phenomena that might cause mutation in the organism's genome. The DNA sequence of the organisms do not get changed in epigenetics.

This phenomena is limited whether the gene is herited from the mother ot the father. The phenomena like acetylation of histones increase the gene expression. The DNA methylation and histone deacetylation at specific residues reduces the gene expression.

Thus, the answer is histone acetylation or DNA methylation.
