Short Description
Determines activity of phosphoglucomutase.
Development Stage
Research-Grade Metabolic Assay Development
Description
The OXPHOSight™ Phosphoglucomutase Assay Kit utilizes a coupled enzyme system to investigate glycogen breakdown and galactose metabolism defects. This assay validates the activity of PGM, essential for the interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate. It supports the diagnosis of glycogen storage diseases and the study of metabolic regulation in muscle and liver tissue.
