PHOSPHOGLUCOSE ISOMERASE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Phosphoglucose Isomerase 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. It is used in sugar assays to convert fructose to glucose.

General Description

The enzyme is part of the glycolytic pathway. Also, it is important in the industrial production of fructose 1,6-diphosphate (FDP) from glucose. The molecular mass is found to be approximately 189 kDa and it consists of four subunits, each with a molecular mass of approximately 50 kDa. Optimum pH is found to be between 9-10 and the isoelectric point is 4.2.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphoglucose Isomerase fuctions as an isomerase, neuroleukin, autocrine motility factor, and a differentiation and maturation mediator . It is responsible for the photosynthetic reduction of carbon.
