Application

D-Fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) is a sugar intermediate of the glycolytic pathway that may be used to help identify, differentiate and characterize enzymes such as phosphofructokinase(s), pyrophosphate-dependent fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase(s), D-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase(s), glutamine:fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase(s) and glucosamine-6P synthase(s).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fructose-6-phosphate is a glycolytic intermediate produced by the isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucoisomerase.

Through high throughput screening and subsequent hit identification and optimization, we synthesized a series of 1-arylcarbonyl-6,7-dimethoxyisoquinoline derivatives as the first reported potent and reversible GFAT inhibitors. SAR studies of this class of compounds indicated significant impact on GFAT inhibition potency

Glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (GFAT) catalyzes the first committed step in the pathway for biosynthesis of hexosamines in mammals. A member of the N-terminal nucleophile class of amidotransferases, GFAT transfers the amino group from the L-glutamine amide to D-fructose 6-phosphate, producing glutamic
