What is Hexose Monophosphate Shunt Overview about?
The Hexose Monophosphate Shunt, also known as the Pentose Phosphate Pathway, is an alternative glucose oxidation pathway primarily responsible for the biosynthesis of NADPH and pentose sugars, occurring in the cytosol. It consists of an oxidative phase that generates NADPH and a non-oxidative phase that interconverts various sugars. G6PD deficiency, an X-linked genetic disorder, impairs NADPH production in red blood cells, leading to hemolytic anemia under certain stressors, with symptoms including jaundice
