D-Glucose-6-phosphate disodium salt dihydrate CAS:3671-99-6
Activation of enzymes: D-Glucose-6-phosphate disodium salt is commonly used as an activator or substrate for various enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, such as hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and glycogen synthase. It can stimulate the activity of these enzymes, allowing for the study of their kinetics and mechanisms.
Energy metabolism studies: Glucose-6-phosphate is a central metabolite in energy production pathways such as glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway. Its disodium salt form can be used to investigate glucose metabolism and the regulation of energy production in cells.
Diagnostic and monitoring tool: Abnormal levels of glucose-6-phosphate in the blood or tissues can indicate metabolic disorders such as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. D-Glucose-6-phosphate disodium salt can be used as a marker or substrate to measure enzyme activity and monitor disease progression.
Synthetic biology and biotechnology: D-Glucose-6-phosphate disodium salt can be used as a starting material for the biosynthesis of various compounds, including biofuels, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. Its involvement in metabolic pathways makes it an attractive substrate for metabolic engineering and synthetic biology applications.
Cell culture and bioprocessing: Glucose-6-phosphate is an essential nutrient for cell growth and metabolism. Its disodium salt form can be added to cell culture media to provide a readily available source of glucose and phosphate for cells. It is commonly used in bioprocessing for the production of proteins, vaccines, and therapeutic cells.
