Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase g6pd

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway, converting glucose-6-phosphate into 6-phosphoglucono-δ-lactone and reducing NADP+ to NADPH. This enzyme plays a crucial role in maintaining the level of NADPH, an important cofactor for various cellular processes.

This method was carried out as described previously with modifications35 (link). The treated cells were resuspended in homogenization buffer containing 0.25 M sucrose (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 20 mM Tris–HCl at pH 7.4 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA), 1 mM EDTA (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), and 0.1% protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Mannheim, Germany). Reaction mixture consisting of 100 μl sample, 2 mg/ml biliverdin reductase from rat liver, 1 mM β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (β-NADPH; Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 2 mM glucose-6-phosphate (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 1 U glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; Sigma, St. Louis, MO) and 25 μM hemin (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) was prepared fresh and incubated at 37 °C for 1 h in the dark. The formed bilirubin was extracted with chloroform and the change in optical density at 464–530 nm was measured in a microplate reader (Multiskan Go; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). HO activity was expressed as picomoles of bilirubin formed per milligram of protein per hour by using an extinction coefficient of 40 mM-1/cm for bilirubin in chloroform and protein concentration of the sample.

NADPH activity was testedby a previously described method [45] (link). Following treatment, intracellular NADPH and NADP + levels were examined [46] . Briefly, two million cells were plated onto 10cm dishes and lysed in 300 μL of extraction buffer after the applied treatment [27] . For NADPH extraction, 100 μL of the supernatant was incubated at 60 °C for 30 min. Next, 100 μL of NADP-cycling buffer [27] with 1.0 U glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; Sigma-Aldrich) was added. After 1 min of incubation at 30 °C, 20 μL of 10 mM glucose 6-phosphate (G6P; Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the mixture, and the change in absorbance at 570 nm was measured. The concentration of NADP + was calculated by subtracting [NADPH] from [total NADP] [27] . The relative NADPH activity was calculated by determining the NADPH/NADP + ratio.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
