Background:
Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, thus committing glucose to the glycolytic pathway. Alternative splicing of the gene for GCK results in three tissue-specific forms of glucokinase, one found in pancreatic islet beta cells and two found in liver. The protein localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. In contrast to other forms of hexokinase, this enzyme is not inhibited by its product glucose-6-phosphate but remains active while glucose is abundant. Mutations in the gene have been associated with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), also called maturity onset diabetes of the young, type 2 (MODY2); mutations have also been associated with persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI).

Other Names:
Glucokinase, Hexokinase type IV, HK IV, Hexokinase-4, HK4, Hexokinase-D, GCK

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7901c was selected from the C-term region of human GCK. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
