Pyruvate Kinase (PK) C화학적 특성, 용도, 생산
용도
Pyruvate Kinase (PK) has been used in the kinase assay.
일반 설명
ATP:pyruvate 2-O-phosphotransferase
Pyruvate kinase has a molar mass of 237,000 and exists as a tetramer. Each polypeptide chain of this tetramer has a molar mass of 57,200. The enzyme contains two identical catalytic particles called protomers. Each of these protomers contains two polypeptide chains. Each protomer contains one site each for Mn
2+ and phosphoenolpyruvate.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pyruvate kinase catalyzes the irreversible conversion of P-enolpyruvate and ADP to pyruvate and ATP with the utilization of a proton. The first step is the transfer of phosphate group from P-enolpyruvate to ADP with the formation of bound enolate of pyruvate and ATP. In the second step, a proton is added to enolate to generate the keto form of pyruvate. Apart from this, the enzyme exhibits other activities, such as ATP- and bicarbonate-dependent ATPase, phosphorylation of fluoride and hydroxylamine, ATP-dependent phosphorylation of glycolate, and decarboxylation of oxaloacetate.
