This process shows the rate-limiting step in glycolysis. The PFKP protein weighs approximately 85 kDa. Expression occurs in various tissues with high presence in platelets and muscle tissues indicating its significant role in energy metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPFKP plays an essential role in maintaining energy supply ensuring efficient glycolysis during high energy demands. It associates with other isoforms PFKM (muscle) and PFKL (liver) to form a tetrameric complex which can adapt its activity based on the energy needs of the cell. This adaptability defines its contribution to cellular metabolism regulation considering energy substrates and signaling molecules.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe function of PFKP ties closely to glycolysis and the larger metabolic pathways managing energy production such as the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Within these pathways PFKP interacts with other metabolic regulators including AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) which influences cell metabolism in response to energy availability. Connections with PFKL and PFKM reveal that PFKP's activity relates to the overall glycolytic flux and energy balance.\u003cbr\u003e\nPFKP's alterations contribute to metabolic conditions like cancer and diabetes. Its dysregulation in cancer cells supports the Warburg effect where tumor cells prefer glycolysis. The link with metabolic proteins such as AMPK also indicates a potential role in diabetes as both disorders involve shifts in energy metabolism. Understanding PFKP's impact on these diseases helps in developing therapeutic strategies targeting metabolic pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46848613646505,"sku":"ab186132","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab186132","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
