Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Proportionality between enzyme concentration and activity was obtained with both assays.

The identification of the product as 6-phosphogluconate through its activity as substrate for 6-phosphogluconic dehydrogenase was confirmed by paper chromatography. The barium salt of the presumed 6-phosphogluconate was isolated by repeated alcohol precipitation and chromatographed in parallel with synthetic 6-phosphogluconate, in the methanol-formic acid and methanol-ammonia solvents described by Bandurski and Axelrod (1951). Both substances gave identical RFvalues of 0.32 and 0.57 in the respective solvents. When mixed with synthetic 6-phosphogluconate (Horecker, 1957), a single spot of the same RFwas obtained.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The phosphorylation of gluconate by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the presence of Mg2+and an enzyme prepared from hog kidney has been studied. The enzyme, gluconokinase, has been partially purified, and the product of this reaction has been identified as 6-phosphogluconate.
