Question

Conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, the first irreversible reaction of glycolysis, is catalyzed by :
(1) Aldolase
(2) Hexokinase
(3) Enolase
(4) Phosphofructokinase

Answer 1

Answer:

I think answer is hexokinase

Answer 2

Answer is option "2"

Explanation:

• In glycolysis, glucose is separated eventually into pyruvate and vitality, an aggregate of 2 ATP, is determined all the while (Glucose + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi - > 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H+ + 2 ATP + 2 H2O). The hydroxyl bunches consider phosphorylation. The particular type of glucose utilized in glycolysis is glucose 6-phosphate.
• Hexokinase is an enzyme used to conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. it is the first step of the activation phase of glycolysis.
• So, the right answer is option 2 "Hexokinase".
