Phosphoglucoisomerase

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in Switzerland, United States, Japan, Germany

Phosphoglucoisomerase is an enzyme that catalyzes the isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate, a key step in glycolysis. It is an important component in the energy production pathway of cells.

Quantitative Determination of Soluble Sugars

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Determination of soluble sugars was performed as described in Stitt et al.[54
] by sequential enzymatic degradation of glucose, fructose, and sucrose; using one unit each of glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (Hoffmann‐La Roche, Basel, Switzerland) for baseline generation, and then hexokinase, phosphoglucoisomerase, and invertase (β‐fructofuranosidase, all from Sigma‐Aldrich), respectively. Quantities were calculated based on reference curves for authentic standards in the range from 0.1 to 1.0 mM.

Hexokinase activity with fructose or glucose as substrate was measured at saturating conditions as described (Lowry and Passoneau, 1972 ). The reaction mixture was (in mmol/L) Tris buffer, 25 (pH 8.1), NADP, 0.5, MgCl2, 2, fructose or glucose, 10, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 0.2 U/mL, and phosphoglucoisomerase 0.4 U/mL (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA). Homogenates, 5% (weight/volume) in sucrose, 0.32 mol/L, were made from frontal cortex (without the underlying white matter). Triton X-100 was added to a final concentration of 0.3 % (vol/vol); the samples were left on ice for 10 minutes and centrifuged at 5 000 × g. Two μL of supernatant were added to 100 μL of reaction mixture. The reaction was started by adding 5 μL ATP, 10 mmol/L. Formation of NADPH was measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm and 37°C. The reaction was linear with time and added homogenate.

Cytosolic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity was determined according to the method of Sharkey et al. (1991 (link)) with a slight modification. The basal portions of rice shoots harvested at the four-leaf stage were frozen at − 80 °C then milled with a mortar and pestle in 20 mM HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazine ethanesulfonic acid)-NaOH (pH 7.5), 100 mM KCl, and 0.5 mM EDTA. Each extraction solution was centrifuged at 13,000×g and 4 °C for 10 min. The supernatant was added to a reaction mixture consisting of 100 mM HEPES-NaOH (pH 7.5), 100 mM KCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM NADP, one unit of phosphoglucoisomerase (Sigma-Aldrich Corp., Tokyo, Japan), and two units of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The reaction was initiated by adding 40 μM fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (Sigma-Aldrich Corp., Tokyo, Japan). It was then spectrophotometrically monitored at 340 nm for increases in NADPH concentration for 5 min after the start of the enzymatic reaction. The amount of product formed was calculated from the increase in absorbance using the NADPH extinction coefficient of 6220 L mol− 1 cm− 1.

Enzymatic Determination of Sugars in Blackberry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Determination of soluble sugars in each fraction (anthocyanin A1–A4, polyphenols and the cleared blackberry raw juice) was performed as described previously through sequential enzymatic degradation of glucose, fructose and sucrose; using one unit each of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Hoffmann-La Roche, Basel, Switzerland) for baseline generation, and then hexokinase (Sigma-Aldrich, Munich, Germany), phosphogluco-isomerase (Sigma-Aldrich) and invertase (β-fructofuranosidase, Sigma-Aldrich), respectively [26 (link),55 (link)]. Quantities were calculated based on reference curves for authentic standards in the range from 0.1 mM to 1.0 mM.

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.
