General description

Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is a NADH-dependent cytosolic enzyme. It can be used as a catalytic enzyme. Its activity is higher under osmotic stress.

Specificity

Heat inactivation: GDH is rapidly inactivated at temperatures > 65 °C.

Quality

Contaminants: <0.001% aldolase and GAP-DH, each, <0.01% LDH and TIM, each

Unit Definition

Unit Conversion: One unit (+25 °C) = 2 units (+37 °C). Biochemica Information, 87

Preparation Note

Activator: EDTA

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae responds to osmotic stress, i.e., an increase in osmolarity of the growth medium, by enhanced production and intracellular accumulation of glycerol as a compatible solute. We have cloned a gene encoding the key enzyme of glycerol
