The following statements are related to pentose phosphate pathway.

a) The first and third steps are oxidations with large, negative standard free-energy changes and are essentially irreversible in the cell

b) NADPH rises and inhibits the first enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway. As a result, more glucose 6-phosphate is available for glycolysis

c) All the enzymes of the reversible reaction of the pentose phosphate pathway are located in the cytosol

d) The NADPH is used for biosynthetic reactions such as lipid synthesis and nitrogen assimilation in the cytosol

For the hypothetical reversible reaction where S is converted to P, the rate constant for the forward reaction is 10⁵ s^-1 while that of the backward reaction is 10¹ s_-1. If the reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme, the rate constant for the forward reaction increases 100-fold. What will be the equilibrium constant of the enzyme catalyzed reaction?

Many biosynthetic pathways are regulated by feedback inhibition of enzymes. In a particular type of feedback inhibition, two endproducts individually do not inhibit an enzyme upstream in the pathway at all, but when both are present they inhibit the same enzyme significantly. What type of feedback inhibition do these inhibitors represent?
