Biological Activity
Specific activity is >70unit/mg obtained by measuring the increase of NADpHin absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of NADP. One unit will oxidize 1.0 umole of Glucose to D-glucose 6-phosphate per minute in the presence of Beta-NADP at pH9.0 at 37 degree C.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks.
Store, frozen at -20 degree C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for GLK active protein
Glucokinase or GLK, is a protein, part of the bacterial glucokinase superfamily. In the bacteria E Coli, glucose can be transported to the inner cell through a system called PTS as glucose 6-phosphate, therefore, GLK is less crucial to the bacteria.
GLK E Coli Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 344 amino acids (1-321) and having a molecular mass of 37.1kDa.GLK is fused to a 23 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

NCBI Description

The cytoplasmic glucokinase is not required for growth on glucose as the carbon source, because glucose is phosphorylated during transport by the PTS system. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG12957].

Uniprot Description

Not highly important in E.coli as glucose is transported into the cell by the PTS system already as glucose 6-phosphate.

Product Notes

The GLK glk (Catalog #AAA141599) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: MGSSHHHHHH SSGLVPRGSH MGSMTKYALV GDVGGTNARL ALCDIASGEI SQAKTYSGLD YPSLEAVIRV YLEEHKVEVK DGCIAIACPI TGDWVAMTNH TWAFSIAEMK KNLGFSHLEI INDFTAVSMA IPMLKKEHLI QFGGAEPVEG KPIAVYGAGT GLGVAHLVHV DKRWVSLPGE GGHVDFAPNS EEEAIILEIL RAEIGHVSAE RVLSGPGLVN LYRAIVKADN RLPENLKPKD ITERALADSC TDCRRALSLF CVIMGRFGGN LALNLGTFGG VFIAGGIVPR FLEFFKASGF RAAFEDKGRF KEYVHDIPVY LIVHDNPGLL GSGAHLRQTL GHIL. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Glucokinase, Active Protein" 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.
