Enolase is an enzyme that catalyzes a reaction of glycolysis. Glycolysis converts glucose into two 3-carbon molecules called pyrubate. The energy released during glycolysis is used to make ATP.[1] Enolase is used to convert2-phosphoglycerate (2PG) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the 9th reaction of glycolysis.[2]

MechanismMechanism
The of enolase as shown, involves Lys 345, Lys 396, Glu 168, Glu 211, and His 159. Enolase forms a complex with at its active site. The Mg 2+ then forms a bond with 2PG to connect it with enolase. Fluoride ions inhibits glcolysis by forming a bond with Mg 2+ thus blocks the substrate (2PG) from binding to the active site of enolase.[3]
