| MPI

Mannose-6 phosphate isomerase (MPI), alternately phosphomannose isomerase (PMI) is an enzyme which facilitates the interconversion of fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) and mannose-6-phosphate (M6P). Mannose-6-phosphate isomerase may also enable the synthesis of GDP-mannose in eukaryotic organisms. M6P can be converted to F6P by mannose-6-phosphate isomerase and subsequently utilized in several metabolic pathways including glycolysis and capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis.PMI is monomeric and metallodependent on zinc as a cofactor ligand.PMI is inhibited by erythrose 4-phosphate, mannitol 1-phosphate, and to a lesser extent, the alpha anomer of M6P.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

OD	2.19	1.61	1.05	0.66	0.43	0.29	0.21	0.07
Corrected OD	2.12	1.54	0.98	0.59	0.36	0.22	0.14	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Human MPI spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Serum(n=8)	84-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	92-105	102
Tissue Homogenates(n=8)	96-108	105

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human MPI and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)	Tissue Homogenates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-96	90-110
	Average (%)	91	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	88-103	87-108	105-115
	Average (%)	94	98	108
