In enzymology a glycerate kinase (EC 2.7.1.31) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionATP + (R)-glycerate ADP + 3-phospho-(R)-glycerateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP and (R)-glycerate whereas its two products are ADP and 3-phospho-(R)-glycerate.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor.
