PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase
Application Notes
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH) was used as a model to test the effect of seed protein fractions on enzyme protection during dehydration. G-6-PDH has been utilized in assays for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and tissue pyridine nucleotides.

Specific Activity
: =400 u/mg solid
Specificity
: Either NAD+ or NADP+ serves as coenzyme; the reaction velocity with NAD+ being approximately 1.8 times greater than with NADP+ p-Glucose-6-phosphate is a preferential substrate for the enzyme; although p-Glucose reacts slowly; Fructose-6-phosphate; fructose-1; 6-diphoshate and ribose-5-phosphate are not considered to be substrates.
Unit Definition
: One unit will reduce 1.0 µmole of NAD+ per minute at pH 7.8 and 25 °C.
