| Description: | The enzyme requires Mg2+ and phosphorylation of an aspartate residue at the active site. The enzyme is able to autophosphorylate itself with its substrate beta-D-glucose 1-phosphate. Although this is a slow reaction, only a single turnover is required for activation. Once the phosphorylated enzyme is formed, it generates the reaction intermediate beta-D-glucose 1,6-bisphosphate, which can be used to phosphorylate the enzyme in subsequent cycles. | ||||
