Related Product Information for anti-PKLR antibody

In mammals, four different isoenzymes exist for pyruvate kinase. Based on their tissue distribution, the isoenzymes are designated L-type (for predominant expression in the liver), R-type (for predominant expression in red blood cells), M1-type (for predominant expression in muscle, brain and heart) and M2-type (for predominant expression in fetal tissues). Pyruvate kinases are responsible for catalyzing the final step in glycolysis: the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate with the coinciding generation of ATP. The PKLR (pyruvate kinase, liver and RBC) gene encodes the L- and R-type isoenzymes through alternative splicing events under the control of different promoters. The R-type isoform, also known as RPK (R-type pyruvate kinase), exists as a tetramer and, when functioning improperly, can result in chronic/hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia (CNSHA/HNSHA) or pyruvate kinase hyperactivity (also called high red cell ATP syndrome). The L-type isoform, alternatively known as PKL (pyruvate kinase L-type), also exists as a tetramer and is upregulated by glucose with implications in maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a pyruvate kinase that catalyzes the transphosphorylation of phohsphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate and ATP, which is the rate-limiting step of glycolysis. Defects in this enzyme, due to gene mutations or genetic variations, are the common cause of chronic hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia (CNSHA or HNSHA). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

PKLR: one of three rate-limiting enzymes in glycolysis. It catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP, yielding one molecule ATP and a pyruvate molecule, which is a central metabolic intermediate that can be used as a building block or oxidized further. There are several mammalian isozymes of pyruvate kinase encoded by different genes. The L type predominates in liver, and the M type in muscle and brain. Two alternatively spliced human isoforms have been described: the R- and L-types.
