in phosphorylation, what is the name of the enzyme that transfers an inorganic phosphate from atp to glucose?\n\no polymerase\no kinase\no hexokinase\no phosphatase
Answer
Brief Explanations:
Hexokinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of glucose by transferring a phosphate group from ATP to glucose. Polymerase is involved in nucleic - acid synthesis, kinase is a general term for enzymes that transfer phosphate groups but hexokinase is specific to glucose phosphorylation, and phosphatase removes phosphate groups.
Answer:
C. Hexokinase
