Question
Most of the enzymes of glycolysis are reversible. But three are not and these are:Select one alternative:phosphofructokinase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, and glucose 6-phosphatasepyruvate socratase, isosolase and fructose 1,6-pythagorasepyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase and hexokinasepyruvate carboxylase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase
Solution
The three irreversible enzymes of glycolysis are pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, and hexokinase.

During glycolysis, phosphofructokinase converts fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (F1,6BP), as shown below. Aldolase then converts F1,6BP into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP).Respectively, phosphofructokinase and aldolase are examples of:A.an isomerase and a hydrolase.B.a transferase and a lyase.C.a ligase and an isomerase.D.an oxidoreductase and a transferase.
