Product details

This Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate Assay Kit (ab284537) provides a quick and easy way to measure Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate (F1,6BP) in a variety of sample types. In the assay, F1,6BP is hydrolyzed by Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphatase (FBP) into inorganic phosphate and F6P. F6P then through several intermediate reactions reacts with the PicoProbe to generate a stable fluorophore measured at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm.

The assay is simple, easy to perform, sensitive and can detect F1,6BP less than 0.5 uM in a variety of samples.

Fructose-16-bisphosphate often referred to as F 1 6 BP or fructose bisphosphate plays a critical role in glycolysis. It exists as a potent allosteric activator of pyruvate kinase which is essential for the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate during energy production. The compound has a molecular mass of approximately 360.12 g/mol and is expressed in various tissues particularly those with high metabolic rates such as the liver muscle and brain. Fructose-16-bisphosphate is not a protein but an intermediate substrate but it is tightly regulated and interacts with several enzymes during glycolysis.
Biological function summary

Fructose 16 bisphosphate serves as a pivotal intermediate in the glycolytic pathway. It originates from the phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate by the enzyme phosphofructokinase-1. The compound's high energy content facilitates its role in the metabolic cycle which directly influences the ATP yield in cells. Fructose 1 6 bisphosphate also acts as a signaling molecule connecting to various metabolic processes and is part of the pyruvate kinase enzyme complex. This relationship highlights its significance in sustaining cellular energy requirements.

Pathways

Fructose 16 bisphosphate plays a fundamental role in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. In glycolysis its formation represents a commitment step catalyzed by phosphofructokinase-1 distinctly connecting it to enzymes such as aldolase which splits it into dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. In gluconeogenesis fructose 16 bisphosphate is converted back into fructose 6-phosphate a process catalyzed by fructose 16-bisphosphatase. This conversion highlights its dual function in energy generation and glucose synthesis linking fructose 1 6 BP to many metabolic cycle proteins and processes.

Fructose 1 6 bisphosphate is associated with metabolic conditions such as diabetes mellitus and fructose-16-bisphosphatase deficiency. In diabetes mellitus the inefficient regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis partly due to fructose bisphosphate and related enzymes can lead to impaired glucose homeostasis. Fructose-16-bisphosphatase deficiency a metabolic disorder directly relates to the accumulation of the fructose 16 bisphosphate causing disruption in gluconeogenesis and subsequent hypoglycemia. These connections highlight the compound's relevance in metabolism and disease emphasizing the need for further research into its role alongside associated proteins.
