Glucose phosphate isomerase --4%
PK deficiency 95%
All other glycolytic enzyme deficiencies combined is rare.
G6PD- by far most common, affects 200 million worldwide/x- linked recessive/malarial protection.

Yeah..thats corrcet , guess in case if we do not see the familiar ones in the list , we should also look for these glycolytic enzymes..here is the list..
Hexokinase,
glucose-phosphate isomerase,
aldolase,
triose-phosphate isomerase,
phosphate-glycerate kinase,
enolase,
and pyruvate kinase
Among these mjl has covered the most common ones!!

Not sure which one insulin works on??But I would guess Pyruvate Kinase because insulin stimulates PFK and the products of this enzyme have a fastforward enhancing action on Pyruvate Kinase.......???????
