is an enzyme catalyzing ATP + GTP to ADP + GTP beneficial or detrimental to the cells
Added by Leah E.
Step 1
Step 1: An enzyme catalyzing ATP + GTP to ADP + GTP would result in the conversion of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) to ADP (adenosine diphosphate) while keeping GTP (guanosine triphosphate) unchanged. Show more…

Consider the effects of two enzymes, $A$ and $B$. Enzyme $A$ catalyzes the reaction \[ \mathrm{ATP}+\mathrm{GDP} \leftrightarrow \mathrm{ADP}+\mathrm{GTP} \] and enzyme B catalyzes the reaction \[ \mathrm{NADH}+\mathrm{NADP}^{+} \leftrightarrow \mathrm{NAD}^{+}+\mathrm{NADPH} \] Discuss whether the enzymes would be beneficial or detrimental to cells.
An enzyme catalyzes the formation of ATP from ADP and phosphate ion. What is its effect on the rate of hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and phosphate ion?
