Glucose is activated by __________ phosphorylation(s) by ATP during the first stage of the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose is activated by two phosphorylation reactions catalyzed by hexokinase and phosphofructokinase during the first stage of the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway. In the first reaction, ATP is used to attach a phosphate group to glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate. In the second reaction, another ATP molecule is used to add a phosphate group to fructose-6-phosphate to form fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.
