Show transcribed image text Suppose you discovered a mutant yeast whose glycolytic pathway was shorter because of the presence of a new enzyme catalyzing the reaction: Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate +H_20 + NAD^+ rightarrow 3-phosphoglycerate + NADH + H^+ Would shortening the glycolytic pathway in this way benefit the cell? Explain.
