Question

Which one of the following enzymes catalyzes the biochemical reaction given below?

A.

Phosphoenolpyruvate mutase

B.

Phosphoglycerate kinase

C.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase

D.

Bis-phosphoglycerate mutase

Correct option is D


Correct Answer: Option 4
Explanation: The reaction shown involves an intramolecular transfer of a phosphate group within a glycerate molecule, converting one bisphosphorylated form into another without ATP consumption or redox change. Bis-phosphoglycerate mutase catalyzes such rearrangement reactions, particularly involving 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate in glycolytic side pathways. The other enzymes listed either catalyze ATP-dependent phosphorylation, dephosphorylation, or unrelated metabolic steps, making them incorrect.
