Seven of the ten enzymes of glycolysis are used to catalyze the glycolytic reactions in reverse. One of these is the aldolase reaction. Write out the mechanism for the aldolase reaction in reverse to synthesize fructose 1,6-bisphosphate from two different phosphotrioses. Include the structures and names of all substrates and products and, if a cofactor or coenzyme is required, note that as well. NOTE: Acceptable abbreviations for compound names and cofactors are ok.
