General description

α-D-Glucose 1-phosphate is converted into D-glucose-6-phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.
α-D-Glucose 1-phosphate is the α-anomeric form of glucose which contains a phosphate group on the primary carbon. It can be converted into the deoxysugar CDP-glucose by the enzyme α-D-Glucose-1-phosphate cytidylyltransferase.

Almost all glucosyl transfer reactions rely on glucose-1-phosphate (Glc-1-P) that either immediately acts as glucosyl donor or as substrate for the synthesis of the more widely used Glc dinucleotides, ADPglucose or UDPglucose. In this communication, we have analyzed two Glc-1-P-related

SnRK1 of the SNF1/AMPK group of protein kinases is an important regulatory protein kinase in plants. SnRK1 was recently shown as a target of the sugar signal, trehalose 6-phosphate (T6P). Glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) can also inhibit SnRK1 and given the
