Sedoheptulose is a possible end-product of this pathway and it involves the formation of an unstable gluconolactonase intermediate. One isomerization process involves the formation of an enediol intermediate in this pathway. Like the (*) Calvin cycle, it employs transketolase to transfer 2 carbon units and it begins with the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate. Its products can be employed in the biosynthesis of coenzymes like FAD and nucleotides. For 10 points, name this pathway that produces NADPH and the five carbon sugar ribose-5-phosphate.
