| Purity |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
GlpK E. Coli Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 525 amino acids (1-502 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 58.6 kDa.GlpK is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus& purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
GlpK also known as glycerol kinase, is a member of the FGGY kinase family. GlpK catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to glycerol, thereby forming glycerol phosphate. Furthermore, this intermediate can then be converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), which is utilized in either glycolysis or gluconeogenesis. The activity of GlpK is affected by numerous metabolites. The non-competitive allosteric inhibition by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) triggers modifications in the quaternary structure of Glpk. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Glycerol kinase, glycerol 3-phosphotransferase, Glycerokinase, GK. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered clear solution. |
| Stability |
