Question

Akinase is an enzyme that performs
A) phosphorylation.
B) as a membrane channel.
C) active transport.
D) protein synthesis.
E) as an antibody.

Accepted Answer

A kinase is an enzyme that transfers phosphate groups from high-energy donor molecules (such as ATP) to specific target molecules, thus phosphorylating them. This process is crucial for many cellular signaling pathways and metabolic reactions. Therefore, the best choice is A) phosphorylation.
