<scene name='Cory_Tiedeman_Sandbox_1/Enolase/1'>Enolase</scene> is an enzyme that catalyzes | <scene name='Cory_Tiedeman_Sandbox_1/Enolase/1'>Enolase</scene> is an enzyme that catalyzes the reversible dehydration reaction of 2-phosphoglycerate (2PG) into Phosphophenolglycerate (PEP) in the 9th reactiion of glycolysis.<ref>{{textbook |author=Voet, Donald; Voet, Judith C.; Pratt, Charlotte W.|title=Fundamentals of Biochemistry: Life at the Molecular Level|edition= 3|pages=500|}}</ref>. Glycolysis converts glucose into two 3-carbon molecules called pyruvate. The energy released during glycolysis is used to make ATP.<ref>{{textbook |author=Voet, Donald; Voet, Judith C.; Pratt, Charlotte W.|title=Fundamentals of Biochemistry: Life at the Molecular Level|edition= 3|pages=487|}}</ref>. Enolase is expressed abundantly in most cells and has been proven useful as a model to study mechanisms of enzyme action and structural analysis, especially for those enzymes involved in glycolysis <ref>{{journal}}</ref>. | ||
