This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, to be specific those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor.
In humans, the ADP-dependent glucokinase is encoded by the ADPGKgene.[1]
As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 1GC5.
