Facilitated diffusion-enzymatic chemical reactions

How facilitated diffusion presents similarities with the enzymatic chemical reactions?

E

Expert

Verified

One of main examples of facilitated transport is entrance of glucose from blood in cells. Glucose from blood binds to explicit permeases (hexose-transporting permeases) present in the cell membrane and through diffusion facilitated by these proteins it enters the cell to cooperate its metabolic functions.

Facilitated diffusion looks like chemical catalysis since the transported substances bind to permeases like substrates bind to enzymes and additionally, after one transport job is concluded; the permease is not consumed and can carry out other successive transports.
