Gene Information

human ... GCK(2645)

General description

Glucose is phosphorylated to glucose-6-phosphate by glucokinases. This gene is alternatively spliced to generate three different forms of the enzyme; one found in the pancreas and two found in the liver. The main function of this gene is to regulate carbohydrate metabolism. Recombinant human pancreatic Glucokinase (Accession# NP_000153)) has a C-terminal FLAG tag and has 470 amino acid residues. It can be useful for studies including enzyme kinetics, activator screening and kinase selectivity.

Physical form

50 mM potassium phosphate pH 7.4, 50 mM sodium chloride, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.5 mM EDTA, and 2.5% glycerol.

Other Notes

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will convert 1 pmol of NADP to NADPH at 30°C. Assay conditions: 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 2 mM MgCl2, 1.0 mM DTT, 0.5 mM NADP, 2.0 mM ATP, 25 mM glucose, 100 μg/ml BSA, 20 units/ml glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and 10 nM human pancreatic glucokinase at 30°C for 30 min.

Glucokinase (GK), the hexokinase involved in glucose sensing in pancreatic β cells, is also expressed in hypothalamic tanycytes, which cover the ventricular walls of the basal hypothalamus and are implicated in an indirect control of neuronal activity by glucose. Previously
