TIGAR-TAT active protein
Recombinant Human TIGAR-TAT (C12ORF5)
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Introduction: TIGAR is a p53-inducible enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose-2-6 bisphosphate (F-2-6-BP) to fructose-6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. F-2-6-BP is an influential activator of 6-phosphofructose-1 kinase (the rate limiting enzyme of glycolysis). By lowering the intracellular level of F-2-6-BP, TIGAR expression leads to increased glucose processing through the pentose phosphate pathway, the main cellular source for NADPH. Protein transduction using TAT fusion proteins represents an alternative methodology for introducing transcription factors and other intracellular proteins into primary as well as transformed cells.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is regulated as part of the p53 tumor suppressor pathway and encodes a protein with sequence similarity to the bisphosphate domain of the glycolytic enzyme that degrades fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. The protein functions by blocking glycolysis and directing the pathway into the pentose phosphate shunt. Expression of this protein also protects cells from DNA damaging reactive oxygen species and provides some protection from DNA damage-induced apoptosis. The 12p13.32 region that includes this gene is paralogous to the 11q13.3 region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
TIGAR: Fructose-bisphosphatase hydrolyzing fructose-2,6- bisphosphate as well as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Inhibits glycolysis by reducing cellular levels of fructose-2,6- bisphosphate. May protect cells against reactive oxygen species and against apoptosis induced by tp53. Belongs to the phosphoglycerate mutase family.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12p13.3
Cellular Component: intracellular
Molecular Function: fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase activity
Biological Process: response to xenobiotic stimulus; dephosphorylation; response to gamma radiation
