Hexokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of glucose using ATP to form a molecule of glucose-6-phosphate. This is the first step of glycolysis in the cytoplasm of animal cells. In this reaction, hexokinase [Choose ] ATP [Choose ] glucose [Choose ] glucose-6-phosphate [Choose ] is a product is the enzyme is a substrate is an inhibitor

If the enzyme hexokinase catalyzes the reaction ATP + Glucose --> Glucose-6-Phosphate, then ___. hexokinase will also catalyze the reverse reaction resulting two products, ATP + Glucose hexokinase could also convert ATP + Glucose to Fructose once hexokinase binds ATP and Glucose it goes through a conformational change. hexokinase energizes ATP and Glucose to make them more reactive. the active site of hexokinase binds Glucose-6-Phosphate more tightly than ATP or Glucose
