Hexokinase vs Glucokinase | High-Yield Biochemistry for USMLE & Medical Students

Confused between hexokinase and glucokinase? You’re not alone — this is one of the most commonly tested and frequently confused topics in biochemistry and metabolism, especially in USMLE Step 1.

In this video, we clearly explain the difference between hexokinase and glucokinase, focusing on kinetics, tissue location, regulation, Km & Vmax, and clinical relevance, so you never mix them up again.

In this video, you will learn:
• What is hexokinase
• What is glucokinase
• Key differences in Km, Vmax, and affinity for glucose
• Tissue distribution (muscle vs liver & pancreas)
• Regulation by insulin and glucose levels
• Clinical correlations (diabetes, MODY)
• High-yield USMLE, MBBS & nursing exam pearls
Perfect for:
• Medical students (MBBS / MD)
• USMLE Step 1 aspirants
• Nursing & allied health students
• Anyone revising carbohydrate metabolism

This video focuses on conceptual clarity + exam relevance, helping you confidently answer any hexokinase vs glucokinase question in exams.
