Glycolitic enzymes are required for glycolysis-energy production.
These enzymes G6P dehydrogenase 6PG dehydrogenase are requred for neucleotide and nucleic acid biosyntheses- the restoration of damaged cells (and their DNA) after injury
In many tissues, one of the earliest responses to cellular injury is the rapid increase in the levels of the enzymes involved in the pentose phosphate pathway. Ten days after an injury, heart tissue has levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase that are 20 to 30 times higher than normal, whereas levels of glycolytic enzymes are 10 to 20% of normal. Suggest an explanation for this phenomenon.
Really stuck on this one.

Tom is a genius, legen-wait for it-DARY
Why does it build up in the heart tissue though?
