... steps that constitute the visual cycle and involve the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE; refs. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8). A key step in the visual cycle is isomerization of an all-trans retinoid to 11-cis-retinol in the RPE (refs. 9, 10, 11). It could be that the retinochrome-like opsins, peropsin, or the ...

Cellular respiration in sperm cells.

... is HOW? The first step of glycolysis consists of attaching a phophate to glucose, catalyzed by the enzyme hexokinase. The second step consists of isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate catalyzed by phosphoglucoisomerase. My question is: Can hexokinase also catalyse the addition ...
