Term
Three Irreversible Steps of Glycolysis
Definition
1) Hexokinase (Glucokinase in liver, pancreas)
Glucose + ATP yields G6P + ADP

2)PFK-1
F6P + ATP yields F 1,6BP + ADP

3)Pyruvate Kinase
PEP + ADP yields pyruvate + ATP
Term
Pyruvate Kinase
Definition
Activators- PEP, F 1,6 BP

Inhibitors- ATP , alanine

This is for L form, M form doesn't covalent modifiers
Term
PFK-1
Definition
Inhibitors- ATP, Citrate

Activators- AMP, F-2,6-BP
