Study Notes
The PFK Reaction in Glycolysis
- The PFK (Phosphofructokinase) reaction is the first unique and irreversible step in the glycolytic pathway.
- It is considered the "committed" step in the pathway.
- The enzyme catalyzing the committed step in a metabolic pathway, such as PFK, is typically the most important control component in the pathway.
