epitope corresponding to amino acids 455-513 mapping near the C-terminus of PKM2 of human origin
Modification Notes
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 PKM2 (pyruvate kinase, muscle) gene encodes the M1- and M2-type isoenzymes through alternative splicing events. Both M1- and M2-type isoforms exists as tetramers and are stimulated by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. In addition, both isoforms exhibit thyroid hormone binding activity and may be referred to as CTHBP (cytosolic thyroid hormone-binding protein) or THBP1. The M2-type isoform also interacts with Oct-4 via its C-terminal domain, functioning to enhance Oct-4 transcriptional activity.
