Which is the following is associated with the malate shuttle?

A
Glycolysis
B
Gluconeogenesis
C
Glycogenolysis
D
Ketone body synthesis
High-Yield Explanation
Malate shuttleis a biochemical system for translocating electrons produced during glycolysis across the semi permeable inner membrane of the mitochondrion for oxidative phosphorylation. These electrons enter the electron transpo chain of the mitochondria reduction equivalents to generate ATP. The NADPH produced in glycolysis is transpoed into the mitochondria with the help of Malate shuttle to liberate 3 ATP molecules.
