Glucose 6-phosphate Isomerase
Cofactors/Coenzymes for Glucose-6-phosphate Isomerase?
Anyone by chance know the cofactors/coenzymes for glucose-6-phosphate isomerase? This is for a biology research thing in highschool, I can’t find it on the internet no matter what resources I use and/or what ways i use to search.
Any would be greatly appreciated!
The second step of GLYCOLYSIS is the conversion of Glucose 6-Phosphate (G6P) to Fructose-6-Phosphate by the enzyme Glucose-6-phosphate Isomerase, also known as Phosphoglucose Isomerase.
Coenzymes for the converstion of G6P to Fructose-6-Phosphate are Phosphoglucose Isomerase and Acetyl-Coenzyme A, and cofactors include NADP+ (nicotine adenosine diphosphate), an electron acceptor of the electron transport chain, and ADP (adenosine diphosphate), which stores energy via acceptance of a phosphate group.
