Table 3 Glycolytic metabolons in hyperstructures. PEP production after 10 s when the EIIBC enzymes are in a patch and i/when the glycolytic enzymes diffuse freely or ii/when these enzymes are assembled into 60 glycolytic metabolons in a hyperstructure with or without channeling (a single enzyme space was left between the patch of EIIBC enzymes that import and phosphorylate glucose and the glycolytic hyperstructure).
