What co-factors would you predict you would need for the overall reaction and why?
Phosphocreatine ----------> Creatine + Pi
ATP ----------> ADP + Pi
Solution
Magnesium ions, Mg2+ serve as cofactors in the overall reaction. Mg2+ ions complex helps in aligning the substrates and helps in the transfer of the inorganic phosphate molecule from ATP to Creatine molecule.
