CLONING

6-Phosphogluconolactonase (EC 3.1.1.31) catalyzes the hydrolysis of 6-phosphogluconolactone, which is the second step of the pentose phosphate pathway. The bacterial devB gene, which is often found in proximity to the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (G6PD), encodes a protein that is homologous to the C-terminal part of human hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (H6PD; 138090). By searching a human EST database for cDNAs encoding homologs of the devB protein from A. actinomycetemcomitans, Collard et al. (1999) identified PGLS cDNAs. They isolated a human liver cDNA containing a complete PGLS coding sequence. The deduced 258-amino acid PGLS protein has a calculated molecular mass of 27,529 Da. PGLS shares 33 to 37% amino acid sequence identity with yeast Sol1 to Sol4, 26% identity with the C-terminal part of human H6PD, 20 to 25% identity with bacterial devB proteins, and 17% identity with human glucosamine-6-phosphate isomerase.

MAPPING

By radiation hybrid mapping, Collard et al. (1999) mapped the PGLS gene to 19p13.2. ... More on the omim web site
