Glucose-6-Phosphate Assay Kit Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Glucose-6-phosphate assay kit has been used in:

• glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) assay
• quantification of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) and fructose-6-phosphate (F6P)
• the determination of malate
• metabolite analysis

General Description

Glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is a key metabolic intermediate that enters either metabolic pathways or storage. G6P is generated when glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase or glucokinase or by the conversion of glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase during glycogenolysis. G6P lies at the beginning of both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathways. It also can be stored as glycogen when blood glucose levels are high.
