Application

Glycerol kinase (glpK) was used to study the effects of pain controlling neuropeptides on human fat cell lipolysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glycerol kinase catalyzes tge MgATP-dependent phosphorylation of glycerol to produce sn-glycerol-3-phosphate and is the rate limiting enzyme in the utilization of glycerol. It is also subject to feedback regulation by fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.

An artificial-membrane-bound glycerokinase chosen as a membrane-bound two-substrate-enzyme model has been used to separate two unequal compartments of a specially designed diffusion cell. An interesting feature is the asymmetry of compartments and the existence of a diffusion layer adjacent to

Upper-body obesity is an important risk factor for developing non-insulin dependent diabetes. To investigate the possibility that a lipolysis defect is present in this form of obesity, we examined the adrenergic regulation of lipolysis in abdominal subcutaneous fat cells from

The weight loss achieved during treatment with very-low-calorie diets (VLCD) varies between individuals. The aim of this study was to investigate whether interindividual variations in catecholamine-induced lipolysis are of importance for the rate of weight loss during VLCD. Prospective study.
