Disease relevance of hexulose 6-phosphate

3-Hexulosephosphate synthase (D-arabino-3-hexulose 6-phosphate formaldehyde lyase) was purified from an obligate methylotroph, Methylomonas aminofaciens, to homogeneity as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analytical ultracentrifugation [1].

High impact information on hexulose 6-phosphate

Besides the faeA gene the genome of M. barkeri harbors a second gene, faeB-hpsB, which is shown to code for a 42 kDa protein with both Fae activity (3.6 U/mg) and hexulose-6-phosphate synthase (Hps) activity (4.4 U/mg) [2].
