Human Phosphofructokinase-Platelet (PFKP) ELISA Kit | PFKP elisa kit
Human Phosphofructokinase-Platelet (PFKP) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: Phosphofructokinase, platelet, also known as PFKP is the platelet isoform of phosphofructokinase (PFK) (ATP:D-fructose-6-phosphate-1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.11). PFK catalyzes the irreversible conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and is a key regulatory enzyme in glycolysis. The PFKP gene, which maps to chromosome 10p, is also expressed in fibroblasts. See also the muscle (PFKM) and liver (PFKL) isoforms of phosphofructokinase, which map to chromosomes 12q13 and 21q22, respectively. Full tetrameric phophofructokinase enzyme expressed in platelets can be composed of subunits P4, P3L, and P2L2.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the phosphofructokinase A protein family. The encoded enzyme is the platelet-specific isoform of phosphofructokinase and plays a key role in glycolysis regulation. This gene may play a role in metabolic reprogramming in some cancers, including clear cell renal cell carcinomas, and cancer of the bladder, breast, and lung. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]
Uniprot Description
PFKP: phosphofructokinase, platelet type. An ubiquitous metabolic enzyme involved in the synthesis and degradation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Key control step of glycolysis. An allosteric enzyme activated by ADP, AMP, or fructose bisphosphate and inhibited by ATP or citrate. Activity: ATP D-fructose 6-phosphate = ADP D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The holoenzyme consists of 4 subunits. The liver and muscle enzymes are homo-tetramers of four liver or muscle isoforms, respectively. The red blood cell enzyme consists hetero-tetramers of the muscle and liver isoforms. A subunit composition with a higher proportion of platelet type subunits is found in platelets, brain and fibroblasts.

Product Notes
The Human PFKP pfkp (Catalog #AAA9714907) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714907 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PFKP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Phosphofructokinase-Platelet (PFKP), ELISA 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.Precautions
