Conversion of Glucose-6-phosphate to fructose- 6-phosphate is a
  1. Anabolic reaction
  2. Catabolic reaction
  3. Isomerization
  4. None of the above

A
Catabolic reaction
B
Anabolic reaction
C
None of the above
D
Isomerization
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Glucose and fructose sugars are isomers of each other. When Glucose-6-phosphate is converted to Fructose- 6-phosphate, this process is known as isomerization. In this reaction, one molecule is converted to another molecule which exactly has the same atoms.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
