(1) Kbhb modification of FBP1 and PCK1 is involved in regulation of the gluconeogenesis pathway. (2) Kbhb of FBP1 and PCK1 is catalyzed by p300 and removed by HDACs. (3) BHB induced an increase in the enzymatic activity of FBP1 and PCK1 through Kbhb modification at the K43 site of FBP1 and the K191 site of PCK1.
