What is the equation for the allosteric inhibition of ATP in the glycolytic pathway, and alternatively provide the equation for AMP reversing the inhibitory action of ATP
Fructose-6-phosphate2? + ATP4? -----phosphofructokinase-1----? Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate4? + ADP3? + H+
Further the ADP will break down into AMP. As soon as the level of AMP decreases to a cerytain level, the phosphofructokinase enzyme activates to form ATP in the glycolysis process. In this way the process shuffles between the level of ATP and AMP.
Equation for AMP reversing the inhibitory action of ATP
Fructose-tribisphosphate4? + AMP3? + 2H+-----phosphofructokinase-1----------à Fructose 6 posphate + ATP4?
