Target data

Function

Catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the oxidative pentose-phosphate pathway, which represents a route for the dissimilation of carbohydrates besides glycolysis. The main function of this enzyme is to provide reducing power (NADPH) and pentose phosphates for fatty acid and nucleic acid synthesis.

Activity summary

Glucose 6 Phosphate Dehydrogenase also known as G6PD or G6P dehydrogenase plays an important role in the pentose phosphate pathway catalyzing the conversion of glucose 6-phosphate to 6-phosphoglucono-δ-lactone while producing NADPH from NADP+. G6PD with a molecular mass of approximately 59 kDa is expressed in various tissues with high levels found in red blood cells liver and adrenal glands. This enzyme is vital for protecting cells from oxidative damage by supplying reductive capacity.

Biological function summary

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase is essential for maintaining cellular redox balance especially in cells lacking mitochondria like red blood cells. It functions as part of a monomer which can dimerize depending on the cellular needs and conditions. The activity of G6PD directly affects the production of NADPH which is necessary for the biosynthesis of nucleic acids and lipids and for maintaining reduced glutathione levels therefore sustaining the antioxidant capacity of the cell.

Pathways

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase is a pivotal enzyme in the oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway which provides ribose 5-phosphate for nucleotide synthesis and NADPH for reductive biosynthetic reactions. G6PD connects with other enzymes in the pathway such as 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase contributing to the regulation of cellular metabolic needs. Its function is tightly linked to glucose metabolism and indirectly influences glycolytic processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Alterations in glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity lead to conditions such as G6PD deficiency which can cause hemolytic anemia when individuals are exposed to certain drugs infections or foods. This enzyme's deficiency is one of the most common enzymatic disorders in humans and is triggered by genetic mutations affecting G6PD function. Moreover G6PD has implications in cancer biology as its activity influences the proliferation and survival of cancer cells alongside other proteins like TP53 and NF-κB which are involved in cellular stress responses.
