Description

General description

α-D-Glucose 1,6-bisphosphate was found to be at a concentration of between 10 μm and 600 μm in various tissues including liver, brain and kidney. [1]

Application

α-D-Glucose 1,6-bisphosphate is used in the identification, differentiation and characterization of α-phosphoglucomutase(s), β-phosphoglucomutase(s) and α- and β-hexoglucomutase(s).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Metabolite formed via the activity of Glucose-1,6-biphosphate synthase. Glucose-1,6-biphosphate (G-1,6-BP) acts as an inhibitor of hexokinase function and an activator of phosphofructokinase-1 and pyruvate kinase. G-1,6-BP also acts as a coenzyme for phosphoglucomutate and a cofactor for phosphopentomutase.
