Related Product Information for Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase assay kit
Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase (FBP) (EC 3.1.3.11) is a rate-limiting enzyme for gluconeogenesis. It hydrolyzes Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate releasing inorganic phosphate and Fructose-6-Phosphate that is further used in the synthesis of glucose. In humans, Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase can be found in the form of two isozymes: FBP1 and FBP2. FBP1 is mainly expressed in liver and kidneys, while FBP2 is expressed in all tissues. Deficiency of Fructose-1,6-Bisphoshatase causes hypoglycemia, metabolic acidosis, and unexpected death in infants. Recent studies have found elevated FBP levels subjects dealing with obesity and diabetes. Furthermore, inhibition of FBP increases glucose utilization and insulin sensitivity. Therefore, FBP could serve as a potential target for treating type II diabetes (insulin resistance). FBP activity assay kit provides a quick, reliable test that allows the measurement of FBP enzymatic activity in various samples. In this Assay, FBP hydrolyzes Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate into Fructose-6-Phosphate (F6P). F6P is used in an enzyme-coupled reaction which reduces a chromophore forming a product with a stable signal that can measured at OD = 450 nm. The assay is simple, sensitive and can detect lower than 100 uU of FBP in variety of samples.

Product Notes

The Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase (Catalog #AAA849740) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
