Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

Research area: Cell Signaling

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is found in the cytoplasm of all cells. The G6PD enzyme is encoded by the Gd gene, located on the long arm of the X chromosome.[1]Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) from Leuconostoc mesenteroides catalyzes the oxidation of glucose 6-phosphate in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP⁺).[2] It corresponds to a molecular weight of 54 kDa and exists as a homodimer.[3]

Anwendung

Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides has been used:

• as a component of reaction mixture for assaying mannose- and glucose-6-phosphate activity[4]
• as a component of reaction mixture in the nevirapine inhibition studies in human hepatic microsomes[5]
• in the glucose-phosphorylating activity of chloroplast extracts[6]
• as a model to test the effect of seed protein fractions on enzyme protection during dehydration.[7]
• in assays for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and tissue pyridine nucleotides.[8]

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

Glucose-6-Phosphat-Dehydrogenase (G6PD) katalysiert die Umwandlung von Glucose-6-Phosphat zu 6-Phosphogluconolaceton und damit den ersten Schritt des Pentose-Phosphat-Wegs.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is a housekeeping enzyme that protects cells from damage caused by reactive oxygen species by supplying substrates that help prevent oxidative harm.[1] G6PD from Leuconostoc mesenteroides catalyzes the oxidation of glucose 6-phosphate in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP⁺) [2] as the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway. Lysine 21 in the Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) is crucial for binding NAD⁺.[2] G6PD uses NAD⁺ or NADP⁺ based on the catabolic or anabolic metabolic pathway.[3]G6PD deficiency can lead to acute hemolysis, neonatal jaundice, or severe chronic non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia.

Einheitendefinition
