Created by alylautar

breakdown of sugars. match the enzyme to its reaction. also includes some cofactors and regulators

- regulators of PK
- ATP, F-1,6-bP
- regulators of PFK
- ATP, AMP, citrate, F-2,6-bP
- regulators of hexokinase
- glucose-6-phosphate (G6P)
- pyruvate kinase (PK)
- phosphorylate ADP into ATP; dephosphorylate PEP into pyruvate
- enolase
