Other Notes
Small volumes of Gck elisa kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
Searchable Terms for Gck purchase
MBS2885895 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Glucokinase (Gck) ELISA Kit target analytes in
biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing Gck. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS2885895 kit is based on Gck antibody-Gck antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect Gck antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, Gck. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%).

NCBI Summary for Gck
catalyzes the conversion of ATP and D-glucose to ADP and D-glucose 6-phosphate; may mediate glucosensing in glucose-inhibited and glucose-excited neurons [RGD, Feb 2006]
UniProt Comments for Gck
Catalyzes the initial step in utilization of glucose by the beta-cell and liver at physiological glucose concentration. Pancreatic glucokinase plays an important role in modulating insulin secretion. Hepatic glucokinase helps to facilitate the uptake and conversion of glucose by acting as an insulin-sensitive determinant of hepatic glucose usage.
Research Articles on Gck
1. Arcuate nucleus glucokinase activation may represent a CNS mechanism that underlies the oft-described phenomena of the "sweet tooth" and carbohydrate craving.
