D-Glucose-6-Phosphate, Disodium Salt Hydrate, MP Biomedicals™

Description

Lies at the start of the glycolysis and pentose phosphate metabolic pathways. D-Glucose-6-Phosphate, Disodium Salt Hydrate, MP Biomedicals is the core carbohydrate substrate for the enzymatic synthesis of archaetidyl-myo-inositols produced through myo-ino

Glucose 6-phosphate (also known as Robison ester) is glucose sugar phosphorylated on carbon 6. This compound is very common in cells, as the vast majority of glucose entering a cell will become phosphorylated in this way. Because of its prominent position in cellular chemistry, glucose 6-phosphate has many possible fates within the cell.

Glucose 6-phosphate lies at the start of two major metabolic pathways: Glycolysis and Pentose phosphate. In addition to these metabolic pathways, glucose 6-phosphate may also be converted to glycogen or starch for storage. This storage is in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen for most multicellular animals, and in intracellular starch or glycogen granules for most other organisms.
