In: Biology
All the energy investment reactions involve _______.
A. isomerase
B. kinase
C. dehydrogenase
D. aldolase
Answer :
B. Kinase.
Discussion and explanation :
Glycolysis is a 10 step reaction chain. In this pathway different enzymes act for different reactions. Kinase is group of enzymes which are involved in breakdown of ATP to carry out the reactions termed as energy investment phase. Kinases also catalyse formation of ATP, termed as payoff phase. Dehydrogenases are involved in oxidation and reduction reaction. Isomerases are enzymes catalysing isomerisation of biomolecules.
