You found out that this enzyme is responsible for converting glucose 1-phosphate (C6H13O9P) to glucose-6-phosphate (C6H13O9P). Based on this action, to which enzyme class does phosphoglucomutase belong? A. Ligase B. Isomerase C. Oxidoreductase D. Lyase 2. Enzymes can be regulated in a many different ways. Covalent modification is one way. Here, the functional groups are attached to or removed from the enzyme. A phosphate group is an example of a functional group that can be added to an enzyme. Depending on the enzyme, addition of a phosphate group can either increase or decrease an enzyme's activity.
