More Details

PHOSPHOGLUCOMUTASE (E.C. 5.4.2.2) is an enzyme which catalyzes the interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) and glucose-6-phosate (G6P). Phosphoglucomutase (PGM) plays a crucial role in glycogen synthesis and degradation. PGM 1 deficiency can cause a rare congenital disorder of glycosylation. A decrease in PGM activity has also been linked with oxidative stress. In BioAssay Systems’ EPGM-100 assay, PGM converts G1P to G6P, which is then oxidized by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The formed NADPH is coupled to a formazan chromogen. The increase in absorbance at 460 nm is directly proportional to phosphoglucomutase activity.

Does this kit come with phosphoglucomutase?

No, this kit does not come with a phosphoglucomutase positive control.

What was the source of the enzyme used to develop this kit?

Phosphoglucomutase from rabbit skeletal muscle was used when developing this kit.

What cell count should I use when preparing cell lysate?

Our general guideline is to suspend about two million (2 x 10^6) harvested cells in 400 μL PBS on ice, then run a pilot test of the sample at different dilutions to determine the optimal one. When testing this kit with PANC-1 cell lysate, we used 650,000 cells/mL. However, the optimal number may vary depending on your cell line and samples.
