Descrição

Descrição geral

The gene encoding glucokinase (GCK) is alternatively spliced to generate three different forms of the enzyme; one found in the pancreas and two found in the liver. The enzyme is expressed as a monomer and possesses one glucose-binding site. The gene encoding GCK is localized on human chromosome 7. Recombinant human liver glucokinase (Accession# NP_277042)) has a C-terminal FLAG tag and has 474 amino acid residues.

Ações bioquímicas/fisiológicas

Glucose is phosphorylated to glucose-6-phosphate by glucokinases. The main function of glucokinase (GCK) is to regulate carbohydrate metabolism. The enzyme triggers the release of insulin in β-cells of pancreas. It can be useful for studies including enzyme kinetics, activator screening and kinase selectivity. Mutation in the gene encoding this protein is associated with a rare form of diabetes and the protein may also have a role in type 2 diabetes.
