Function

Hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in the endoplasmic reticulum. Forms with the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (SLC37A4/G6PT) the complex responsible for glucose production in the terminal step of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Hence, it is the key enzyme in homeostatic regulation of blood glucose levels.

Activity summary

G-6-Pase also known as glucose-6-phosphatase is an enzyme with a significant role in glucose metabolism. It has a molecular mass of approximately 36 kDa. The enzyme is primarily expressed in the liver and kidneys where it catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate into glucose and inorganic phosphate. This reaction is important in the final steps of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis processes essential for maintaining blood sugar levels. G-6-Pase is sometimes referred to as the catalytic subunit of the glucose-6-phosphatase complex and is integral for energy homeostasis.

Biological function summary

The enzyme is fundamental in regulating endogenous glucose production. Apart from its standalone activity G-6-Pase works in conjunction with other proteins as part of a larger glucose-6-phosphatase complex located in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. It interacts with glucose-6-phosphate transporter proteins to efficiently manage glucose output. This complex interplay is important for meeting the organism's energy needs especially during fasted states when glucose supply from dietary intake is low.

Pathways

G-6-Pase plays a major role in gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. In gluconeogenesis it helps generate glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates important for energy balance during fasting or exercise. In glycogenolysis it aids in breaking down glycogen into glucose ensuring a constant energy supply. Within these pathways G-6-Pase associates with proteins like glycogen synthase and PEP carboxykinase which coordinate to regulate glucose homeostasis and energy production.

Associated diseases and disorders

G-6-Pase is tightly linked to glycogen storage disease type I (GSD I) also known as von Gierke disease. This disorder results from a deficiency or dysfunction of the enzyme leading to impaired glucose release and severe hypoglycemia. Additionally misregulation of G-6-Pase activity is implicated in the development of type 2 diabetes where it affects insulin sensitivity and glucose output in the liver. G-6-Pase’s interaction with insulin receptor substrates highlights its connection to these metabolic diseases influencing their progression and severity.

    Western blot - Anti-G-6-Pase antibody (ab93857)

    This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% Milk blocking buffer before being incubated with ab93857 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP, and visualised using ECL development solution ECL Substrate Kit (High Sensitivity) ab133406.
