GCK is an enzyme that expedite the formation of glucose-6-phosphate for glucose by phosphorylation. Humans and other vertebrates have GCK in the cells of the pancreas and liver. In both organs, the enzyme has an important role in carbohydrate metabolism regulation by sensing sugar levels and acting according to the change in glucose levels, that can rise after a meal or fall during fasting. Mutations in the gene that codes for this enzyme can cause hypoglycemia or diabetes..
GCK Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 485 amino acids (1-465 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 54.3kDa. GCK is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
