Glucosamine—fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase [isomerizing] 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GFPT1 gene.Glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 1 is the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the hexosamine pathway. GFAT controls the flux of glucose into the hexosamine pathway and catalyzes the formation of glucosamine 6-phosphate.
