Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting Specificity / Sensitivity Phospho-PFKFB2 (Ser483) (D4R1W) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of PFKFB2 protein only when phosphorylated at Ser483. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser483 of human PFKFB2 protein. Background The bifunctional 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK/FBPase or PFKFB) catalyzes the synthesis and degradation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and regulates its steady-state level (1,2). Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate activates phosphofructokinase, a rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis, by allosteric regulation (1,2). Four different PFKFB isoforms (PFKFB1, PFKFB2, PFKFB3, and PFKFB4) have been identified (1,2). Research studies indicate that amino acids activate PFKFB2 through Akt-dependent phosphorylation at Ser483 on PFKFB2 (3). In addition, androgen increases the expression of PFKFB2 in prostate cancer cells (4).
