QUESTION

A kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes a chemical reaction in which a phosphate group is transferred from ATP to a given molecule.

A kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes a chemical reaction in which a phosphate group is transferred from ATP to a given molecule. In glycolysis, the enzyme phosphofructokinase catalyzes the conversation of 6-phosphofructose into 1,6-bisphosphofructose (seen below):

Ignoring what the enzyme does, by which mechanism would an organic chemist use to explain this reaction. Include in your mechanism the correct use of the arrow pushing formalism, focusing on the steps we used for this kind of reaction, and the identification of important terms, steps, and intermediates that account for the observed products of this reaction.
