Phosphopyruvate hydratase, aka enolase, is a metalloenzyme that catalyses the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), the ninth and penultimate step of glycolysis
Phosphopyruvate hydratase, usually known as enolase, is a metalloenzyme (EC 4.2.1.11) that catalyses the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), the ninth and penultimate step of glycolysis. The chemical reaction is:2-phospho-D-glycerate ⇌ phosphoenolpyruvate + H2O Phosphopyruvate hydratase belongs to the family of lyases,… Read more.
