Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transketolase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon unit from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, resulting in the formation of a C3 and a C7 carbohydrate from two C5 carbohydrate precursors in the nonoxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway.
