Related Product Information for PCK1 recombinant protein

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1, also known as PCK1, is a main control point for the regulation of gluconeogenesis. PCK1 plays an important role in this process by stimulating hepatic glucose production. The expression of PCK1 can be regulated by insulin, glucocorticoids, glucagon, cAMP, and diet. Modulation of the signals governing PCK1 levels presents a potential therapeutic approach to the treatment of Insulin resistance and consequently obesity. Recombinant human PCK1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E Coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

NCBI Description

This gene is a main control point for the regulation of gluconeogenesis. The cytosolic enzyme encoded by this gene, along with GTP, catalyzes the formation of phosphoenolpyruvate from oxaloacetate, with the release of carbon dioxide and GDP. The expression of this gene can be regulated by insulin, glucocorticoids, glucagon, cAMP, and diet. Defects in this gene are a cause of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase deficiency. A mitochondrial isozyme of the encoded protein also has been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

Catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate (OAA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), the rate-limiting step in the metabolic pathway that produces glucose from lactate and other precursors derived from the citric acid cycle.
