Target Background
Function
This antibody targets glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), a key enzyme catalyzing the rate-limiting step in the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. This pathway represents an alternative carbohydrate dissimilation route to glycolysis. G6PD's primary function is to generate NADPH, a crucial reducing agent, and pentose phosphates essential for fatty acid and nucleic acid biosynthesis. These metabolites are vital for membrane synthesis and cell division.
Gene References Into Functions
- Studies indicate that reduced cytosolic G6PD activity in developing seeds alters metabolism, increasing the availability of carbon substrates for storage compound synthesis. This effect appears to outweigh any decrease in NADPH specifically for fatty acid synthesis. (PMID: 17993547)[PMID: 17993547]
