PFKM Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Three phosphofructokinase isozymes exist in humans: muscle, liver and platelet. These isozymes function as subunits of the mammalian tetramer phosphofructokinase, which catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Tetramer composition varies depending on tissue type. This gene encodes the muscle-type isozyme. Mutations in this gene have been associated with glycogen storage disease type VII, also known as Tarui disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Uniprot Description
PFKM: phosphofructokinase, muscle 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. Defects in PFKM are the cause of glycogen storage disease VII (GSD-VII) also known as Tarui disease. Two alternatively spliced isoforms have been described.

Product Notes
The PFKM pfkm (Catalog #AAA8243716) is a Blocking Peptide produced from Synthetic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PFKM Blocking Peptide reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PFKM can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). Blocking Peptide to the diluted primary antibody in a molar ratio of 10:1 (peptide to antibody) and incubate the mixture at 4 degree C for overnight or at room temperature for 2 hours. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PFKM pfkm 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 "PFKM, Blocking Peptide" 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
