FBP2 belongs to the FBPase class 1 family. The protein is a gluconeogenesis regulatory enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-339 from human FBP2, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~39kD (362aa) Specific Activity: >1500pmol/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.
