Analysis Note

A coupled enzyme system containing fructose-6-phosphate kinase (pyrophosphate-dependent), aldolase, triosephosphate isomerase, and α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase.

Application

The product has been used for the measurement of pyrophosphate content of plant tissues. It has also been used as a rapid, routine check of pyrophosphate content by monitoring NADH oxidation in Solanum tuberosum tuber extracts.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The pyrophosphate detection kit couples the production of pyrophosphate to the consumption of NADH.
Two moles of NADH are oxidized to NAD+ per mole of pyrophosphate consumed. The reaction is monitored spectrophotometrically at 340 nm.
The reagent can be used to detect 10-100 nmoles of pyrophosphate.

Pretreatment of discs excised from developing tubers of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) with 10 millimolar sodium fluoride induced a transient increase in 3-phosphoglycerate content. This was followed by increases in triose-phosphate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and hexose-phosphate (glucose 6-phosphate + fructose 6-phosphate
