Related Product Information for Pfk assay kit
Background/Introduction: Phosphofructokinase (PFK) is a key glycolytic enzyme and plays a major regulatory role during glycolysis. This enzyme is present in bacteria, plants and animals. There are 2 types of PFKs - PFK1 and PFK2. In the presence of ATP, PFK1 & PFK2 catalyzes the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-diphosphate and fructose-2,6-diphosphate respectively and ADP. PFK has 3 major isoforms in mammals: PFK-M (muscle), PFK-L (liver) and PFK-P (platelet). In humans, PFK deficiency causes glycogen storage disease, also called Tarui's disease, which is characterized by exercise-induced muscle weakness and cramps. On the other hand, increased PFK activity contributes to cancer cell proliferation and tumorigenicity. Early detection of abnormal phosphofructokinase activity is crucial for identification, prediction and therapeutic strategy. The Phosphofructokinase Microplate Assay Kit, PFK converts fructose-6-phosphate and ATP to fructose-diphosphate and ADP. NADH can be measured at a colorimetric readout at 340 nm.

Product Notes

The General Pfk pfk (Catalog #AAA8243182) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8243182 Assay Kit recognizes General Pfk. AAA Biotech's Phosphofructokinase can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Functional Assay. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Pfk pfk for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Phosphofructokinase, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
