A) phosphoenolpyruvate
B) creatine phosphate
C) 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate
D) A and B
E) A, B, and C

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All three molecules listed (phosphoenolpyruvate, creatine phosphate, and 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate) have a higher phosphoryl-transfer potential than ATP, meaning they can transfer a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP with a release of more energy than the reverse reaction involving ATP itself.

Which of the Following Molecules Has a Higher Phosphoryl-Transfer Potential
