Description
Enzymatically converts β-D-glucose-1-phosphate to β-D-glucose-6-phosphate. β-Phosphoglucomutase enzymatically converts β-D-glucose 1-phosphate to β-D-glucose 6-phosphate. It is involved in starch and sucrose metabolism. This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically the phosphotransferases (phosphomutases), which transfer phosphate groups within a molecule. This enzyme participates in starch and sucrose metabolism.
Abbr
β-Phosphoglucomutase, Recombinant (Lactococcus sp.)
Applications
β-Phosphoglucomutase is used to study starch and sucrose metabolism. It is used for the determination of α-amylase in clinical analysis. It is used to study galactose utilization and generalized glycogenosis (Pompe's Disease).
