Background: Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP) is an important intermediate in both lipid biosynthesis and glycolysis. In glycolysis, Fructose-1,6-diphosphate is converted to DHAP and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) by aldolase. Both DHAP and GAP serve as the intracellular triose phosphate pool. DHAP can be further converted into GAP by Triose Phosphate Isomerase (TPI). In humans, TPI deficiency is a rare autosomal disease. It causes hemolytic anemia, neurological diseases, and even death due to blockage of the glycolytic pathway and accumulation of DHAP in erythrocytes. MyBioSource's PicoProbeTM Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate Assay kit is suitable for measuring low levels of DHAP typically found in a variety of samples. In this kit, TPI converts DHAP to GAP that undergoes a series of reaction and reduces PicoProbe to generate fluorescence. The fluorescence intensity generated is directly proportional to the amount of Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate. This simple, sensitive, and easy to use assay kit can detect Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate as low as 0.5 uM in a variety of samples.

Product Notes
The PicoProbeTM Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP) (Catalog #AAA841685) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Measurement of Dhydroxyacetone Phosphate in various tissues/cells Analysis of metabolic pathways such as glycolysis, Calvin cycle in plants, methylglyoxal pathway and lipid biosynthesis Mechanistic study of human TPI deficiency. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PicoProbeTM Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP) for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PicoProbeTM Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP), 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.Precautions
