Alternative splicing of glucokinase mRNA in rat liver.
The sequences of two near full-length cDNAs encoding rat liver glucokinase are reported. One of the cDNAs is essentially identical to the cDNA cloned by Andreone, Printz, Pilkis, Magnuson & Granner. [(1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 363-369]. The other cDNA contains a 151 bp insertion and a downstream 52 bp deletion. The inserted block of bases has been shown to originate from an optional cassette ex...
متن کاملEvolution of glucose utilization: glucokinase and glucokinase regulator protein.
Glucose is an essential nutrient that must be distributed throughout the body to provide energy to sustain physiological functions. Glucose is delivered to distant tissues via be blood stream, and complex systems have evolved to maintain the levels of glucose within a narrow physiological range. Phosphorylation of glucose, by glucokinase, is an essential component of glucose homeostasis, both f...
متن کاملGlucokinase and glucokinase regulatory protein: mutual dependence for nuclear localization.
Conditional expression of the glucokinase regulatory protein in insulinoma cells, under control of the reverse tetracycline-dependent transactivator, was used to investigate whether expression of this protein de novo would alter the intracellular distribution of glucokinase. The regulatory protein, which was undetectable in the basal state, could be induced by doxycycline to levels comparable t...
متن کاملGenetics of yeast glucokinase.
Mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking glucokinase (EC 2.7.1.2) have no discernible phenotypic difference from the wild-type strain; in a hexokinaseless background, however, they are unable to grow on any sugar except galactose. Reversion studies with glucokinase mutants indicate that the yeast S. cerevisiae has no other enzyme for phosphorylating glucose except the two hexokinases, P1 and...
متن کاملEbb and Tide of Glucokinase
his journal’s editors have asked me to comment on the paper in this issue by Jetton et al. entitled "Substrate induced nuclear export and peripheral compartmentalization of hepatic glucokinase correlates with glycogen deposition." The investigations of these authors exemplify the remarkable recent trend in studies of intermediary metabolism paying careful attention to the precise intracellular ...
