In seven of the eleven reactions of gluconeogenesis (starting from pyruvate), the same enzymes are used as in glycolysis, but the reaction directions are reversed. Notably, the ΔG values of these reactions in the cell are typically near zero, meaning their direction can be readily controlled by changing substrate and product concentrations.

Ho...The process of gluconeogenesis is in many ways the simple opposite of glycolysis, so it is not surprising that some of the enzymes used in glycolysis are the same as those used for gluconeogenesis. However, there are a few exceptions. These arose (and have probably evolved) for two major reasons - (1) the thermodynamics of the reaction are prohibitive, and (2) the need for independent control of the catabolic and anabolic processes.
