The first enzymes that convert glucose into glucose-6-P are
|
|
Hexokinase
|
|
|
PFK1
|
|
|
Phosphofructokinase
|
|
|
Aldolase
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So the correct answer is ‘Hexokinase’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is a 6 carbon organic substrate that undergoes glycolysis for the release of energy during cellular respiration. Glucose is first phosphorylated to glucose 6-phosphate by an enzyme called ‘Hexokinase’ in the presence of Mg2+. So, the answer is ‘Hexokinase’.
