Application

Aldolase is used to convert fructose 1,6-diphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Aldolase, from rabbit muscle has been used for stereospecific deprotonation at DHAP C3 . Product A2714 is essentially sulfate-free and contains citrate buffer salts.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Aldolase is involved in gluconeogenesis, the Calvin cycle and glycolysis. Aldolase, from rabbit muscle, is a class I aldolase which forms covalent Schiff base intermediates. The active site of aldolase is in the center of the α/β 8 barrel fold .

Unit Definition

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of fructose 1,6-diphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate per min at pH 7.4 at 25 °C.

Gliding motility and host-cell invasion by apicomplexan parasites depend on cell-surface adhesins that are translocated via an actin-myosin motor beneath the membrane. The current model posits that fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (ALD) provides a critical link between the cytoplasmic tails of transmembrane

Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) produce many important and structurally complex natural products. Because of their architectures, reprogramming NRPSs has long been attempted to access new bioactive compounds. However, detailed characterization of NRPS catalysis and substrate selectivity by adenylation (A) domains

6-Phosphofructokinase-1-kinase (PFK) tetramers catalyse the phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (F16BP). Vertebrates have three PFK isoforms (PFK-M, PFK-L, and PFK-P). This study is the first to compare the kinetics, structures, and transcript levels of recombinant human PFK
