Phosphoglucose Isomerase from Baker's Yeast, MP Biomedicals™

Description

≥300 u/mg protein, Milky Suspension

• Phosphoglucose Isomerase is used in sugar assays to convert fructose to glucose.
• There is evidence that phosphoglucose isomerase acts as a molecular messenger.
• It is produced and secreted by white blood cells, and acts to regulate the growth of several different cell types.
• Phosphoglucose Isomerase(PGI) is an enzyme crucial for the interconversion of D-glucose 6 phosphate and D-fructose 6-phosphate.
• PGI is responsible for the second step of glycolysis and is involved in glucogenesis.
• It is highly conserved in bacteria and eukaryotes.
• Phosphoglucose Isomerase fuctions as an isomerase, neuroleukin, autocrine motility factor, and a differentiation and maturation mediator.
