Metabolic map about the oxidative phase of pentose phosphate pathway

The pentose phosphate pathway is divided into two phases, one oxidative (irreversible) and one non-oxidative (reversible).
It is important to mention that in the following metabolic map the first reaction (glucose phosphorylation by hexokinase) is omitted.
