Hexokinase begins this process by phosphorylating glucose.
Its first step proceeds by a random sequential bisubstrate mechanism. An isomerase converts dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, which then undergoes substrate-level phosphorylation as triose phosphate dehydrogenase uses NAD+ to oxidize an aldehyde to a carboxylic acid, then subsequently transfers phosphate groups to ADP. Hexokinase begins this process by phosphorylating glucose. FTP name this set of 5 endergonic and 5 exergonic reactions that yields NADH and ATP by converting a glucose molecule to 2 pyruvates.
Its first step proceeds by a random sequential bisubstrate mechanism.
