1 A member of the N-terminal nucleophile class of amidotransferases, GFAT transfers the amino group from the L-glutamine amide to D-fructose 6-phosphate, producing glutamic acid and glucosamine 6-phosphate. fructose-6-phosphate glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 Homo sapiens
2 The kinetic constants reported previously for mammalian GFAT implicate a relatively low affinity for the acceptor substrate, fructose 6-phosphate (Fru-6-P, K(m) 0.2-1 mm). fructose-6-phosphate glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 Homo sapiens
3 The kinetic constants reported previously for mammalian GFAT implicate a relatively low affinity for the acceptor substrate, fructose 6-phosphate (Fru-6-P, K(m) 0.2-1 mm). fructose-6-phosphate glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 Homo sapiens
4 In a second assay method that measures the stimulation of glutaminase activity, a K(d) of 2 microm was measured for Fru-6-P binding to hGFAT1. fructose-6-phosphate glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 Homo sapiens
5 These data suggest that hGFAT1 is fully active at physiological levels of Fru-6-P and may be regulated by its product GlcN-6-P in addition to the pathway end product, UDP-GlcNAc. fructose-6-phosphate glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 Homo sapiens
