Glucokinase is also known as human hexokinase IV <ref>DOI 10.1074/jbc.M111.274126</ref>. It is an enzyme that involves in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. Liver and pancreatic cells use glucokinase converts glucose molecule to glucose 6 phosphate.

== Structure and Function==  
== Function ==
Glucokinase is a protein contains 465 amino acid residues which make up two domains, including a <scene name='75/752269/Small_domain__green/1'>small domain and a large domain</scene>, colored in green and blue, respectively.
 
When glucose molecule binds to the <scene name='75/752269/Gkactivesite_glucose/4'>active site</scene> of glucoskinase, it forms hydrogen bonds with <scene name='75/752269/Gkactivesite_glucose/2'>Asn 204, Asp 205, Asn 231, Glu 256 and Glu 290</scene>. At the allosteric site, either glucokinase activators (GKA) or glucokinase inhibitor (GKI) will bind to regulate the activity of glucokinase by changing the conformation. JSmol structure shows an example of <scene name='75/752269/Gkallosteric/1'>GK-GKA complex</scene>, where the GKA bind to the allosteric site. The allosteric site is composed of 3 hydrophobic pockets which are made up of different amino acid residues colored in pink, green, and purple <ref>DOI 10.2174/1875397300802010076</ref>. Among these ammino acid residues, different residues will form hydrogen bond corresponding to different ligands that bind to the site.

This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
