This bifunctional enzyme weighs approximately 58 kDa and manages levels of fructose-26-bisphosphate a potent activator of another enzyme called phosphofructokinase-1. PFKFB3 expression occurs in various tissues but is especially high in areas with active cell proliferation like the brain and tumors. This enzyme's activity affects glycolytic flux critical for energy production and biosynthesis especially under conditions requiring rapid energy supply.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPFKFB3 regulates cellular energy metabolism serving as a switch for converting carbohydrates into energy and building blocks for growth. This enzyme is part of a glycolytic complex coordinating energy needs during proliferation and survival. Its activity is important in processes demanding increased energy and anabolic precursors such as cell division. The enzyme's modulation affects fructose-26-bisphosphate levels influencing cellular responses to stress and nutrient availability directly impacting metabolic adaptation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPFKFB3 integrates into the glycolytic pathway and the pentose phosphate pathway. PFKFB3's control over fructose-26-bisphosphate levels influences phosphofructokinase-1 modulating the glycolytic pathway's rate. This modulation impacts energy production efficiency and the provision of metabolites required for nucleotide synthesis linking to the pentose phosphate pathway. Proline-rich AKT substrate of 40 kDa (PRAS40) and AKT may also interact indirectly to regulate PFKFB3 activity in these metabolic pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nPFKFB3 links strongly to cancer and diabetes. Its upregulation in cancerous tissues supports tumor growth by promoting glycolysis known as the Warburg effect. Cancer-associated proteins such as KRAS often rely on PFKFB3's glycolytic control to sustain proliferative signaling. Additionally in diabetes altered PFKFB3 activity can contribute to insulin resistance due to disrupted metabolic homeostasis with insulin pathway proteins like IRS1 potentially interacting with it in this context.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851597762729,"sku":"ab218121","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab218121","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
