No. Glucose is a carbohydrate.
The enzyme responsible for converting glucose to fructose is glucose isomerase. It catalyzes the reversible isomerization of glucose to fructose. This enzyme is commonly used in the production of high-fructose corn syrup.
Glucose is converted to fructose by the glucose isomerase enzyme
The enzyme that synthesizes starch from glucose-1-phosphate is starch synthase. This enzyme catalyzes the condensation reaction of glucose molecules to form the starch polymer.
Glucose is the substrate that is converted into glucose 6-phosphate by the enzyme hexokinase. Hexokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate in the first step of glycolysis.

The liver, kidney, and intestinal mucosa contain the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in gluconeogenesis, the process of synthesizing glucose from non-carbohydrate sources.
Maltase is the enzyme that converts maltose to glucose. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond between the two glucose molecules in maltose, resulting in the production of two glucose molecules.
Hexokinase
turns maltose into glucose
The enzyme that converts galactose into glucose 1-phosphate is galactokinase. This enzyme phosphorylates galactose to form galactose 1-phosphate, which can then be converted into glucose 1-phosphate through further metabolic pathways.
Glucose-6-phosphatase is the enzyme responsible for producing glucose in the liver and kidneys through gluconeogenesis, a process that synthesizes glucose from non-carbohydrate sources like amino acids and glycerol.
