Product Specs

Introduction
PGK1, an enzyme encoded by the X-linked PGK1 gene, plays a crucial role in glycolysis. This enzyme catalyzes the conversion of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate, producing ATP. Beyond its glycolytic function, PGK1 may also act as a cofactor for polymerase alpha. Defects in the PGK1 gene can lead to chronic hemolytic anemia, sometimes accompanied by mental retardation or muscular disease (rhabdomyolysis). Overexpression of PGK1 and its associated signaling targets may be linked to peritoneal dissemination in diffuse primary gastric carcinomas. Additionally, studies indicate differential expression of PGK1 in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of individuals with schizophrenia.
Description
Recombinant PGK1 Mouse protein, expressed in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain. It consists of 441 amino acids (amino acids 1-417) with a molecular weight of 47.1 kDa. The protein includes a 24 amino acid His-tag at the N-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Expression

The recombinant mouse PGK1 protein is typically expressed in Escherichia coli and is available in a full-length form, ranging from amino acids 1 to 417 . It is often tagged with a His tag at the N-terminus to facilitate purification and detection. The protein is purified to over 90% purity and is suitable for various applications, including SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry .

Biological Functions

PGK1 is not only a key player in glycolysis but also exhibits several other biological activities:

  • Angiogenesis: PGK1 is secreted by tumor cells and participates in angiogenesis by reducing disulfide bonds in the serine protease plasmin, leading to the release of angiostatin, a tumor blood vessel inhibitor .
  • DNA Replication and Repair: PGK1 acts as a cofactor for polymerase alpha, playing a role in DNA replication and repair .
  • Tumorigenesis: PGK1 is involved in various processes related to tumorigenesis, including epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), autophagy initiation, and mitochondrial metabolism .
Clinical Significance

Deficiency in PGK1 can lead to a range of clinical phenotypes, including hemolytic anemia and neurological impairments . The enzyme’s role in cancer biology has also been extensively studied, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target .

Research Applications

Recombinant mouse PGK1 is widely used in research to study its enzymatic activity, structure-function relationships, and its role in various biological processes. It is also used in the development of assays and as a standard in biochemical studies .
