The fate of D-[2-13C]glucose 6-phosphate exposed to phosphoglucoisomerase (glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9) in 2H2O was monitored by 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The generation of the anomers of both D-[2-13C]fructose 6-phosphate and D-[2-13C,2-2H]glucose 6-phosphate followed a single-exponential pattern. The rate constant, which was proportional to the enzyme concentration, was about 14 times higher, however, in the former than in the latter case. The disappearance of D-[2-13C,2-1H]glucose 6-phosphate occurred in a bi-exponential manner, the rate constants for the fast and the slow processes being in fair agreement with those obtained for the generation of D-[2-13C]fructose 6-phosphate and D-[2-13C,2-2H]glucose 6-phosphate respectively. These findings indicate that the process of equilibration of D-[2-13C]glucose 6-phosphate and D-[2-13C]fructose 6-phosphate is at least one order of magnitude faster than the intermolecular proton transfer involving the deuterons from the solvent. Such a difference provides strong support to the view that the inverconversion of hexose phosphates in the reaction catalysed by phosphoglucoisomerase proceeds in two distinct steps, the second of which occurs according to two competing modalities with either an intramolecular or an intermolecular proton transfer.

D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

D005956 Glucose-6-Phosphate Isomerase An aldose-ketose isomerase that catalyzes the reversible interconversion of glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate. In prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms it plays an essential role in glycolytic and gluconeogenic pathways. In mammalian systems the enzyme is found in the cytoplasm and as a secreted protein. This secreted form of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase has been referred to as autocrine motility factor or neuroleukin, and acts as a cytokine which binds to the AUTOCRINE MOTILITY FACTOR RECEPTOR. Deficiency of the enzyme in humans is an autosomal recessive trait, which results in CONGENITAL NONSPHEROCYTIC HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA.
