Abstract excerpt
Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), a key enzyme in glucose homeostasis, is anchored to the endoplasmic reticulum by nine transmembrane helices. The amino acids comprising the catalytic center of G6Pase include Lys(76), Arg(83), His(119), Arg(170), and His(176). During catalysis, a His residue in G6P...
