Background Information: Glucose is phosphorylated to glucose-6-phosphate by glucokinases. This gene is alternatively spliced to generate three different forms of the enzyme; one found in the pancreas and two found in the liver. The main function of this gene is to regulate carbohydrate metabolism. Recombinant human liver Glucokinase (Accession# NP_277042)) has a C-terminal FLAG tag and has 474 amino acid residues. It can be useful for studies including enzyme kinetics, activator screening and kinase selectivity.
