α-Glucosidase, rice
Based on 1 Customer Validation
α-Glucosidase, rice is a GH31 glycoside hydrolase in rice seeds, with high selectivity for α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. α-Glucosidase, rice can be inhibited by rice husk extracts (IC50 = 1.25 μg/mL) and steroidal components (IC50 = 1.83 μg/mL). α-Glucosidase, rice exists in two major isoforms, among which isoform II is more sensitive to inhibitors. α-Glucosidase, rice can directly bind to and degrade starch granules in rice seeds. α-Glucosidase, rice can form ONG2-I and ONG2-II via post-translational proteolysis. α-Glucosidase, rice can be used in type 2 diabetes research.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
α-Glucosidase, rice (5 mg/mL oligosaccharides/heteroglucosides, 2 mg/mL polysaccharides; 10 min at 37°C) shows a strong preference for α-1,4-linked glycosides[1].
α-Glucosidase, rice (0.5% substrate; 5 min preincubation, 10 min incubation) isoforms α-glucosidase I and α-glucosidase II exhibit maximum activity toward maltose at 55 °C and maximum activity toward soluble starch at 50 °C.[1].
α-Glucosidase, rice (100 mM Tris, 100 mM erythritol; 20 min at 37°C) are inhibited by 100 mM Tris and 100 mM erythritol, with both α-glucosidase I and α-glucosidase II affected. Among them, α-glucosidase II is more sensitive to these two inhibitors than α-glucosidase I[1].
α-Glucosidase, rice exists as two isoforms, ONG2-I and ONG2-II, which directly bind to and degrade starch granules; ONG2-II shows stronger binding ability and faster glucose release rate. Both isoforms share identical substrate specificity and kinetic characteristics, have an optimal pH of 4.5, and exhibit thermostability up to 40 °C.[2].
α-Glucosidase, rice is inhibited by rice husk extracts (IC50 = 1.25 μg/mL) and steroidal components isolated from rice husks (IC50 = 1.83 μg/mL)[3].

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are usually based on the assessment of cell membrane damage, which can also be indirectly detected by measuring cell viability. Detection methods include MTT assay, CKK-8 assay, LDH assay and ATP assay, etc.

Research Protocol for Metabolic Diseases
AMP-activated protein kinase, AMPK, is a conserved cellular energy sensor that responds to reduced cellular energy status and coordinates metabolism by increasing ATP-generating catabolic pathways while suppressing ATP-consuming anabolic processes. In metabolic disease research, the AMPK pathway is experimentally relevant because it regulates hepatic lipid synthesis, fatty acid oxidation, glucose production, skeletal-muscle glucose disposal, mTORC1-linked biosynthesis, autophagy, mitochondrial homeostasis, and whole-body energy balance. The central pathway logic is that energy stress, metformin, exercise-like stimulation, or direct AMPK activators increase AMPKα Thr172 phosphorylation and downstream substrate phosphorylation, including ACC and RAPTOR. Phosphorylation of ACC suppresses lipogenesis and supports fatty acid oxidation, whereas phosphorylation of RAPTOR suppresses mTORC1 signaling and links cellular energy status to growth and protein synthesis control. The pathway is linked
