Application

D-glucose-6-phosphate sodium can be used as an energy source for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

In cells, D-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is generated when glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase or glucokinase or by the conversion of glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase during glycogenolysis. G6P lies at the beginning of both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathways. It also can be stored as glycogen when blood glucose levels are high.

Caution

Non-hygroscopic, and very stable to atmospheric moisture at room temperature, unlike the disodium salt.

There are limited treatment options for enterococcal urinary tract infections, especially vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE). Oral fosfomycin is a potential option, although limited data are available guiding dosing and susceptibility. We undertook pharmacodynamic profiling of fosfomycin against E. faecalis and E.

Aberrant redox signaling underlies the pathophysiology of many chronic metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methodologies aimed at rebalancing systemic redox homeostasis have had limited success. A noninvasive, sustained approach would enable the long-term control of redox signaling for

Protocols

To measure glucose-6-phosphatase activity, the Taussky-Shorr method is used. This method is a spectrophotometric stop-rate determination assay that is measured at 660 nm.

To measure glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate is used in a spectrophotometric rate determination assay at 340 nm.
