Application

β-Phosphoglucomutase is used to study starch and sucrose metabolism. It is used for the determination of α-amylase in clinical analysis. It is used to study galactose utilization and generalized glycogenosis (Pompe′s Disease).

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Phosphoglucomutase enzymatically converts β-D-glucose 1-phosphate to β-D-glucose 6-phosphate. It is involved in starch and sucrose metabolism.
Enzymatically converts β-D-glucose-1-phosphate to β-D-glucose-6-phosphate.

Unit Definition

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme which converts 1μmol of β-D-glucose-1-phosphate to β-D-glucose-6-phosphate per minute at 37°C and pH 7.0.

Other Notes

Contains EDTA and lactose.

Experimental observations of fluoromagnesate and fluoroaluminate complexes of β-phosphoglucomutase (β-PGM) have demonstrated the importance of charge balance in transition-state stabilization for phosphoryl transfer enzymes. Here, direct observations of ground-state analog complexes of β-PGM involving trifluoroberyllate establish that when the geometry

Activated Lactococcus lactis beta-phosphoglucomutase (betaPGM) catalyzes the conversion of beta-d-glucose 1-phosphate (betaG1P) derived from maltose to beta-d-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P). Activation requires Mg(2+) binding and phosphorylation of the active site residue Asp8. Initial velocity techniques were used to define the steady-state

Synthesis of the Streptococcus pneumoniae type 3 capsule requires the pathway glucose-6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) --> Glc-1-P --> UDP-Glc --> UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) --> (GlcUA-Glc)(n). The UDP-Glc dehydrogenase and synthase necessary for the latter two steps, and essential for capsule production, are
