Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase 1(FBP1) is a gluconeogenesis regulatory enzyme, catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. Fructose-1,6- diphosphatase deficiency is associated with hypoglycemia and metabolic acidosis. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-338 from human FBP1, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~39kD (358aa) Specific Activity: >7000 pmol/min/ug, obtained by measuring the increase of NADPH in absorbance at 340nm resulting from the reduction of NADP. One unit will oxidize 1pmole of fructose 1,6 diphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate/minute at pH 9.5 at 37C.
