Synonym: 6-Phosphofructokinase(pyrophosphate), Pyrophosphate: D-fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase

Description

Other Notes

These two pyrophosphate-dependent fructose-6-phosphate kinases differ in their response to the physiological activator fructose 2,6-diphosphate [Fru (2,6)-P2]. The enzyme from Propionibacterium freudenreichii (F8381) reportedly is not affected by Fru (2,6)-P2.3 The enzyme from potato tubers (F2258) is stimulated by Fru (2,6)-P2 (half-maximal activation at 5.5 nM Fru (2,6)-P2 for potato tuber enzyme).4

Unit Definition

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of pyrophosphate and fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-diphosphate and inorganic phosphate per min at pH 7.4 at 30 °C.

Physical form

Contains imidazole salts and stabilizer

Application

Can be used for the determination of pyrophosphate by the method of O′Brien, W., Anal. Biochem., FB76, 423 (1976).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fructose-6-phosphate kinase converts fructose-6-phosphate into fructose 1,6-bisphophate in the rate limiting step of the glycolysis cycle1,2.
