Application

D-Fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) is a sugar intermediate of the glycolytic pathway that may be used to help identify, differentiate and characterize enzymes such as phosphofructokinase(s), pyrophosphate-dependent fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase(s), D-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase(s), glutamine:fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase(s) and glucosamine-6P synthase(s).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fructose-6-phosphate is a glycolytic intermediate produced by the isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucoisomerase.

Through high throughput screening and subsequent hit identification and optimization, we synthesized a series of 1-arylcarbonyl-6,7-dimethoxyisoquinoline derivatives as the first reported potent and reversible GFAT inhibitors. SAR studies of this class of compounds indicated significant impact on GFAT inhibition potency

L-Glutamine:d-fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase, also known as glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase (GlcN6P synthase), which catalyzes the first step in a pathway leading to the formation of uridine 5'-diphospho-N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc), is a key point in the metabolic control of the biosynthesis of amino sugar-containing macromolecules.

Neoplastic cells are highly dependent on the de novo synthesis of nucleotides to maintain sufficient pools to support DNA replication and the production of RNA.

We presents an article about the Warburg effect, and how it is the enhanced conversion of glucose to lactate observed in tumor cells, even in the presence of normal levels of oxygen. Otto Heinrich Warburg demonstrated in 1924 that cancer cells show an increased dependence on glycolysis to meet their energy needs, regardless of whether they were well-oxygenated or not.
