General description

Uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase (UDP-glc-PPase) is ubiquitous in plants, yeast, bacteria, and mammals. This enzyme is an octamer of eight identical sub-units.

Application

Uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase from baker′s yeast has been used:
  • in the synthesis of uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose (UDP-Glc)-13C9
  • to quantify Suc synthase (SUS) enzyme activity in rice
  • to study the role of hexokinase and glycogen synthase controls the flux in frog oocytes

Biochem/physiol Actions

Uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase (UDP-glc-PPase) participates in catalyzing the synthesis of UDP-glucose. This enzyme requires divalent cations such as Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Ni2+ for its activity.

Unit Definition

One unit will form 1.0 μmole of glucose 1-phosphate from uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose and inorganic pyrophosphate per min at pH 7.6 at 25 °C.

Physical form

Lyophilized, sulfate-free powder containing citrate buffer salt

The concentration of pyrophosphate in urine has been determined using the enzyme uridine-5'-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase. The technique is relatively quick and easy to perform. Reproducibility of results was good, and results from recovery experiments were excellent. The mean concentration of pyrophosphate
