Anti-G6PD (AA 308-320) antibody produced in goat

The gene encoding G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) is mapped to human chromosome Xq28 and spans 16.2 kb. One G6PD monomer is composed of 515 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 59,256 Da. The active enzyme exists as a dimer and contains an NADP molecule tightly bound to it.

Peptide with sequence C-STNSDDVRDEKVK from the internal region of the protein sequence according to NP_000393.4 ; NP_001035810.1.

G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate to 6-phosphogluconolactone, reducing NADP to NADPH. It therefore, catalyzes the first step of hexose monophosphate pathway (HMP). As it oxidizes glucose-6-phosphate, it confers protection against oxidative damage in erythrocytes. Its deficiency is highly heterogeneous, with around 190 variants being reported. The deficiency of G6PD was discovered while studying hemolytic anemia. G6PD also results in hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia.
