Enzyme enolase catalyses the conversion of 2-PGA to phosphoenol pyruvic acid in the presence of cofactor

A

`Mn^2+`

B

`Fe^2+`

C

`Mg^2+`

D

`Zn^2+`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
(c)Conversion of 2PGA to PEP is the 8th step of glycolysis.This conversion is catalysed by the enzyme enolase and takes place in the presence of cofactor`mg^(2+)` with the loss of a water molecule.
