Recombinant Human Fructosamine 3 Kinase

Fructosamine 3 Kinase (FN3K) catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructosamines which may result in deglycation, the non-enzymatic reaction of glucose with primary amines followed by Amadori re-arrangement. Phosphorylation of fructosamines instigates metabolism of the modified amine and brings about the de-glycation of fructoselysine and of glycated proteins. A high concentration of glucose may affect non-enzymatic oxidation of proteins by reaction of glucose and lysine residues (glycation). Fructosamines, the proteins altered in this way, are less active or functional.
