Glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase

GLUCOSAMINATE AMMONIA-LYASE GLUCOSAMINE N-AOETYLTRANSEERASE GLUCOSAMINE-6-PHOSPHATE ISOMERASE GLUCOSAMINE-6-PHOSPHATE SYNTHASE Glucose as a substrate or product, CLUCOKINASE HEXOKINASE LACTASE... 

Glutamine is one of the principal combined forms of ammonia that is transported throughout the body (Chapter 24). Glucosamine 6-phosphate synthase, which catalyzes the reaction of Eq. 20-5, is an amido-transferase of the N-terminal nucleophile hydrolase superfamily (Chapter 12).31 It hydrolyzes the amide...

The synthesis of the anhydroglucitol 8 and its l,2[ H]-labelled analogue by addition of hydrogen or tritium to a protected terminal alkene followed by treatment with MCPBA has been described as an affinity label for E. coli derived glucosamine 6-phosphate synthase. ...

NSG binds to many kinds of protein, such as glycogen synthase and glycogen phos-phorylase, and contains minor constituents such as glucosamine and a phosphate group [6]. Furthermore, the fine structural properties of NSG can be influenced by the extraction method [20,21]. We can prepare ESG with high purity and controlled structure. While the major role of glycogen in vivo is to store glucose, other functions...
