The yeast hexokinase isoenzymes PI and PII have been purified in large amounts (20 mg) from overproducing yeast strains. The purification procedures of hexokinase PI and PII include anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and chromatofocusing on PBE 94, hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose (necessary for the isolation of the isoenzyme PI); in the final step either a Mono Q HR 5/5 or a Fractogel EMD TMAE 650(S) column was used. Hexokinase preparations were characterized before crystallization by chromatofocusing on a Mono P HR 5/20 FPLC column, where different forms of hexokinase can be rapidly distinguished by their elution behaviour. From both purified hexokinase PI and PII, large crystals were grown that diffract X-rays to high resolution.

D006593 Hexokinase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ATP and a D-hexose to ADP and a D-hexose 6-phosphate. D-Glucose, D-mannose, D-fructose, sorbitol, and D-glucosamine can act as acceptors; ITP and dATP can act as donors. The liver isoenzyme has sometimes been called glucokinase.
