Determination of Significance:
PEPCK (EC 4.1.1.32) is widely found in animals, flowering plants, algae, some fungi and bacteria. The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetic acid to phosphoenolpyruvate, which is the first-rate limiting enzyme regulating gluconeogenesis.
Measurement Principle:
PEPCK catalyzes oxaloacetic acid to form phosphoenolpyruvate and CO2, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase further catalyze the oxidation of NADH to NAD+ in turn, and determine the NADH decline rate at 340 nm, which can reflect the PEPCK activity.
Self Provided:
Ultraviolet spectrophotometer/microplate reader, low temperature centrifuge, water bath pot, micro quartz cuvette/96 well flat-bottom plate (UV), adjustable pipette, mortar/homogenizer, ice and distilled water
