you still have to phosphorylate glucose during its metabolism why is it that the phosphorylation of glucose during its metabolism to pyruvate doesn't result in a strong enough drop in intracellular phosphate to cause the same problem because uh the reaction stops whenever there's um the phosphate and atp levels start dropping a little you have that autoregulatory thing with the there's an autoregulatory thing with it the enzyme stops functioning it's inhibited and then it allows the atp levels to stay normal
