Discuss the regulation of glycolysis in the production of ATP from glucose


Hexokinase may be important in determining the rate of glucose uptake from the blood. However, it is not the major control point in glycolytic flux. The most significant reaction in the control of glycolytic flux is catalyzed by PFK-1, which is inhibited by high levels of ATP and fructose-2,6-biphosphate.
