Hexokinase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase activities in flight muscles of grasshopper Valanga nigricornis(burm.)

1. The activities of hexokinase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) activities were assayed in flight muscle mitochondria of Valanga nigricornis. 2. Kinetic analysis of the enzyme activities yielded the following information: for hexokinase, its Km (glucose) is 150 μM while its Vmax is 2.5 μmol...
