Regulation of Glycolysis by Phosphofructokinase
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Phosphofructokinase, glycolysis's rate-limiting enzyme, is allosterically inhibited by high ATP and citrate and activated by high ADP, tying pathway speed to actual energy need.
Show
When a cell's ATP supply is already high, phosphofructokinase slows, and glycolysis backs up rather than overproducing ATP.
Watch for
This is feedback inhibition, per Bio 0532, applied to one named enzyme — not a separate mechanism.
