Abstract excerpt
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) catalyzes the oxidation of glucose-6-phoshate to 6-phospho-gluconolactone with the concomitant reduction of NADP+ to NADPH. In solution, the recombinant human G6PDH is known to be active as dimers and tetramers. To distinguish between the kinetic properties of dimers and tetramers of the G6PDH is not trivial. Steady-state kinetic experiments are often performed at low...
