Descripción

Descripción general

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-P-DH) is a key regulatory enzyme in the first step of the pentose phosphate pathway. G-6-P-DH is a glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 128 kDa (gel filtration).G6PD is a dimer and consists of a single active site at each subunit.

Research area: Cell Signaling

Aplicación

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been used:

• to test ketose reductase activity in developing maize endosperm.
• to determine the levels of mannose in coronary heart disease patient-derived serum
• to study its activity on extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) extract to determine cell lysis through sonication
• to determine the glucose uptake in cultured human muscle satellite cells

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

G6PD provides all cells with reducing power as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) which enables the cells to balance oxidative stress. Mutations in the G6PD gene are associated with X-linked G6PD deficiency, a hereditary genetic defect such as neonatal jaundice and acute hemolytic anemia.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) catalyzes the conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to 6-phosphogluconolacetone as the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway.

Definición de unidad
