Descrizione generale

Research area: Cell Signaling

Glycerol kinase (GK) is part of the FGGY carbohydrate kinase family.

Applicazioni

Glycerokinase from Cellulomonas sp. has been used:
  • for determining the kinetic characteristics of human and trypanosomatid phosphofructokinases using an enzyme-linked kinetic assay.
  • to study the effect of sugar in fluorescence emission.
  • in 2-Arachidonoylglycerol-based fluorescence assay for DH-463, a fluorescent activity-based probe for monoacylglycerol lipase.

Azioni biochim/fisiol

Glycerol kinase catalyzes the MgATP-dependent phosphorylation of glycerol to produce sn-glycerol-3-phosphate and is the rate limiting enzyme in the utilization of glycerol. It is also subject to feedback regulation by fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.Mutations in this gene are associated with Glycerol Kinase Deficiency (GKD), a condition characterized primarily by hypertriglyceridemia and hypoglycemia. This enzyme is useful for enzymatic determination of glycerol and triglyceride when coupled with glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (=G-3-P DH, G3D-301), glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (=G-3-P oxidase, G3O-301, G3O-311, G3O-321) or pyruvate kinase (PYK-301) and lactate dehydrogenase (LCD-209, LCD-211), lipoprotein lipase (LPL-311, LPL-314) in clinical analysis

Proprietà fisiche

Isoelectric point : 4.2
Michaelis constants : 4.4 x 10-5M (Glycerol), 4.3 x 10-4M (ATP)
Inhibitors : p-Chloromercuribenzoate, heavy metal ions (Pb++, Fe++, Hg++, Ag+)
Optimum pH : 9.8 (G-3-PDH system), 7.8 (G-3-P oxidase system) Optimum temperature : 500C
pH Stability : pH 5.5 x 10.0 (25oC, 20hr)
Thermal stability : below 40oC (pH 7.5, 15min)
Substrate specificity : This enzyme catalyzes the stereospecific transfer of the terminal
phosphoryl moiety of ATP to one of the primary hydroxyl group of
glycerol, forming sn-glycerol-3-P. The enzyme has the highest
specificity for glycerol, and also phosphorylates dihydroxyacetone
and glyceraldehyde (Table 1,2). Mg++ is essentially required for the
reaction.

Definizione di unità

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of glycerol and ATP to L-α-glycerophosphate and ADP per min at pH 9.8 at 25 °C in a coupled system with PK/LDH.

Stato fisico

Lyophilized powder containing phosphate buffer salts and sodium gluconate

The femtosecond laser ablation in biological tissue produces highly fluorescent compounds that are of great significance for intrinsically labelling ablated tissue in vivo and achieving imaging-guided laser microsurgery. In this study, we analyzed the molecular structures of femtosecond laser-ablated tissues
