General description

α-D-Glucose 1-phosphate is converted into D-glucose-6-phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) is produced from glycogen during glycogenolysis by the actions of glycogen phosphorylase. Conversion to glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by phosphoglucomutase allows for entry of the glucose molecule into metabolic pathways such as glycolysis. During glycogenesis, G6P is converted to G1P by the actions of phosphoglucose isomerase.

Preparation Note

Prepared by a modification of the procedure of McCready, R.M., et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 66, 560 (1944).

β-D-Glucose-1-phosphate (βGlc1P) is an efficient glucosyl donor for both enzymatic and chemical glycosylation reactions but is currently very costly and not available in large amounts. This article provides an efficient production method of βGlc1P from trehalose and phosphate using the

The diverse types of glycoconjugates synthesized by trypanosomatid parasites are unique compared with the host cells. These glycans are required for the parasite survival, invasion or evasion of the host immune system. Synthesis of those glycoconjugates requires a constant supply

Almost all glucosyl transfer reactions rely on glucose-1-phosphate (Glc-1-P) that either immediately acts as glucosyl donor or as substrate for the synthesis of the more widely used Glc dinucleotides, ADPglucose or UDPglucose. In this communication, we have analyzed two Glc-1-P-related
