Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Dehydrogenase from rabbit muscle (C15-1289-977)

General description

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a multifunctional protein. It is basically called as a glycolytic enzyme.

Application

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Dehydrogenase from rabbit muscle has been used:

• for measurements of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) activity assay
• to generate a linear standard curve to analyse GAPDH activity in the experimental samples collected from mice
• in anti-aggregation assays
• in purified GAPDH studies

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate into D-glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate as part of the glycolysis pathway.

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate as part of glycolysis. It has also been shown to have roles in initiation of apoptosis, transcription activation and the shuttling of ER to Golgi vesicles<<<18,New>>>.
