Predicted MW	55.7 kDa
Concentration	lot specific
Purity	>90% by SDS - PAGE
Buffer	Presentation State: Purified State: Liquid purified protein Buffer System: 50 mM MES 6.0, 0.1 mM PMSF, 2 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, 10% glycerol
Preparation	Liquid purified protein
Protein Description	Recombinant G6PD protein was expressed in E.coli and purified by conventional chromatography techniques.
Storage	Store undiluted at 2-8°C for up to two weeks or (in aliquots) at -20°C or -70°C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Stability	Shelf life: one year from despatch.
Bioactivity	Biological: Specific activity is > 70 units/mg obtained by measuring the increase of beta-NADPH in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of beta-NADP.  One unit oxidizes 1.0 umole D-glucose-6-phosphate to 6-phospho-D-gluconate per min in the presence of beta-NADP at pH 7.4 at 25°C.
Reference Data
Summary	Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is the rate-limiting enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway, a metabolic pathway that supplies reducing energy to cells by maintaining the level of NADPH. G6PD converts glucose-6-phosphate into 6-phosphoglucono-δ-lactone and simultaneously produce NADPH. The NADPH in turn maintains the level of glutathione in these cells that helps protect the red blood cells against oxidative damage. G6PD deficiency cause acute hemolytic anemia.
