| Description | 3-Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is a key enzyme in glycolysis, widely present in animals, plants, and microorganisms. It catalyzes the reaction of 3-phosphoglycerate and ATP to produce 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. The latter, under the action of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADH, 3-Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is a key enzyme in glycolysis, widely present in animals, plants, and microorganisms. It catalyzes the reaction of 3-phosphoglycerate and ATP to produce 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. The latter, under the action of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADH, produces glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and NAD+. The activity of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is determined by measuring the decrease in NADH.Component100TStorageExtraction Buffer100 mL2-8℃. Store in the dark.Reagent 11EA-20℃.

Tissue Samples: Weigh approximately 0.1 g of tissue, add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer, homogenize on ice, and then centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 5 minutes. Collect the supernatant for assay.Note: If increasing the sample amount, use a ratio of 1:5 to 1:10 (tissue weight (g) : Extraction Buffer volume (mL)) for extraction.2. Bacterial/Cell Samples: Collect bacteria or cells into a centrifuge tube by centrifugation and discard the supernatant. Take approximately 5 million bacteria or cells, add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer, and disrupt using ultrasound on ice (power 200 W, ultrasonicate for 3 s, interval 10 s, repeat 30 times). Centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 10 minutes. Collect the supernatant and keep it on ice for assay.Note: If increasing the sample amount, use a ratio of 500-1000 (x10⁴ cells) : 1 (mL Extraction Buffer) for extraction.Assay Procedure1. Preheat the microplate reader for 30 minutes. Set the wavelength to 340 nm and the temperature to 25°C.2. Thaw all reagents to room temperature (25°C).3. In a well of the 96-well plate, add sequentially:Reagent (µL)Test TubeSample20Reagent 110Reagent 210Reagent 310Reagent 4140Mix well and incubate at room temperature (25°C) for 10 minutes.4. Add Reagent (µL)Test TubeReagent 5105. Mix gently. At room temperature (25°C), read the absorbance at 340 nm at 30 seconds (A1) and then again after 10 minutes (A2). Calculate ΔA = A1 - A2.Notes:1. If ΔA is close to zero, the reaction time can be appropriately extended to 20 minutes before reading A2. The modified reaction time (T) must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, increase the sample volume appropriately (e.g., to 40 µL, with a corresponding decrease in Reagent 4 volume). The modified sample volume (V1) must be substituted into the calculation formula.2. If the decreasing trend is unstable, read the absorbance every 20 seconds and select a linear decreasing period for calculation. The corresponding ΔA value should be substituted into the calculation formula.3. If the initial absorbance A1 is too high (e.g., >2, as in deeply pigmented plant leaves), appropriately reduce the sample volume. The modified sample volume (V1) must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, add a small amount of activated carbon to the sample, mix, let stand for 5 min, then centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 10 min, and use the supernatant for detection.4. If ΔA is greater than 0.5, reduce the reaction time (e.g., to 5 min) or reduce the sample volume (e.g., to 10 µL). The modified reaction time (T) and sample volume (V1) must be substituted into the calculation formula.PGK Activity Calculation1.
