Which of the following enzyme catalyses the formation of AMP from two molecules of ADP?
Adenylate kinase
Adenylyl cyclase
Adenosine kinase
Adenosine deaminase
When ATP level is reduced, AMP is formed by Adenylate kinase reaction. 2 ADP - ATP + AMP This is why AMP is an allosteric activator of glycolysis. Adenylate kinase or myokinase is a phosphotransferase. It catalyses the interconversion of adenine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, and AMP). It plays an impoant role in cellular energy homeostasis.
