Properties
Description
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides, ammonium sulfate suspension is a considerable enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway that leads to the constrution of 6-phosphogluconolactone and NADPH to glucose-6-phosphate and NADP+.
Unit Definition
One unit reduces one micromole of NAD per minute at 30°C, pH 7.8, using glucose-6-phosphate as substrate.
Source
Leuconostoc mesenteroides
Form
Ammonium sulfate suspension
Applications
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase applies to the detection of some Hexoses in carbohydrate studies and the dairy industries.
