Enolase, also known as phosphopyruvate hydratase, catalysis the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP). This is the penultimate step of glycolysis.

Chemical equation

2PG \rightleftharpoons PEP

Rate equation

Mono-substrate reversible Michaelis-Menten equation is used. [1]

 \frac{V_{mf}\frac{[2PG]}{K_{2PG}}-V_{mr}\frac{[PEP]}{K_{PEP}}}{1 + \frac{[2PG]}{K_{2PG}} + \frac{[PEP]}{K_{PEP}}}

Parameter values

Parameter Value Organism Remarks
V_{mf} 0.36 [2] HeLa cell line
V_{mr} 0.4[1]
Km_{2PG} 0.038[1]
Km_{PEP} 0.06[1]
