Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase PURIFICATION AND PARTIAL CHARACTERIZATION
نویسنده
چکیده
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been purified lOOO-fold from pig liver. This enzyme exists as an active dimer of molecular weight 133,000 and an inactive monomer of molecular weight 67,500. The pH of maximum activity is 8.5 and the ionic strength maximum is 0.1 to 0.5 M. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is highly specific for NADP+ and glucose B-phosphate. Apparent K, values of 3.6 pM and 5.4 WM were obtained for glucose 6-phosphate and NADP+. This enzyme is located almost entirely within the soluble portion of the cellular cytoplasm.

Galactose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Purification and partial characterization.
A new enzyme, galactose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase has been purified about 50-fold from goat liver. The enzyme can be distinguished from the nonspecific hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase by its high substrate specificity and absolute pyridine nucleotide requirement. In contrast to the hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, this enzyme is located exclusively in the...
متن کاملStudies with Rat Liver Glucose Dehydrogenase.
Glucose dehydrogenasel catalyzes the direct oxidation of glucose to &gluconolactone (2) utilizing as a coenzyme either nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) (3-5). Harrison (6,7) first reported its presence in cat, dog, sheep, and ox livers in 1931 and later achieved a crude purification of the beef liver glucose dehydrogenase (8). Improve...

Background: Benzaldehyde dehydrogenase (BZDH) is encoded by the xylC that catalyzes the conversion of benzaldehyde into benzoate in many pathways such as toluene degradation. Objectives: In this study, the xylC gene from Rhodococcus ruber UKMP-5M was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and characterized.Materials and Methods: The xylC was amplified and cloned in E. coli. The re...
متن کاملCharacterization and Partial Purification of Aldose-6-phosphate Reductase (Alditol-6-Phosphate:NADP 1-Oxidoreductase) from Apple Leaves.
Aldose-6-phosphate reductase (alditol 6-phosphate:NADP 1-oxidoreductase) was isolated and characterized from mature apple leaves (Malus domestica cv. Starkrimson). The enzyme was purified 79-fold. The enzyme catalyzed the following reversible reaction: d-glucose 6-phosphate + NADPH + H(+) right arrow over left arrow d-sorbitol 6-phosphate + NADP(+). No activity was detected when NAD(+) was subs...

Pentose phosphate metabolism of human red blood cells may be altered by inherited deficiency in cytoplasmic enzymes like glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose-6-phosphate:NADP oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.1.1.49), resulting in increased hemolytic susceptibility.' This deficiency may be due either to a mutation at a structural gene or to an alteration in the rate of synthesis or of destruction ...
