Capillary electrophoresis-based assay of phosphofructokinase-1. [PDF]
An assay was developed for phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) using capillary electrophoresis (CE). In the glycolytic pathway, this enzyme catalyzes the rate-limiting step from fructose-6-phosphate and magnesium-bound adenosine triphosphate (Mg-ATP) to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and magnesium-bound adenosine diphosphate (Mg-ADP).

Protein phosphatase 4 dephosphorylates phosphofructokinase-1 to regulate its enzymatic activity. [PDF]
Most cancer cells utilize glucose at a high rate to produce energy and precursors for the biosynthesis of macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. This phenomenon is called the Warburg effect or aerobic glycolysis— this distinct characteristic is an attractive target for developing anticancer drugs.

Phosphofructokinase-1 and fructose bisphosphatase-1 in canine liver and kidney. [PDF]
In healthy individuals, plasma glucose levels are maintained within a normal range. During fasting, endogenous glucose is released either through glycogenolysis or gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis involves the formation of glucose-6-phosphate from a variety of precursors followed by its subsequent hydrolysis to glucose.

Phosphofructokinase-1 Negatively Regulates Neurogenesis from Neural Stem Cells. [PDF]
Phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1), a major regulatory glycolytic enzyme, has been implicated in the functions of astrocytes and neurons. Here, we report that PFK-1 negatively regulates neurogenesis from neural stem cells (NSCs) by targeting pro-neural transcriptional factors.

Phosphofructokinase 1 Glycosylation Regulates Cell Growth and Metabolism [PDF]
Cancer cells must satisfy the metabolic demands of rapid cell growth within a continually changing microenvironment. We demonstrated that the dynamic posttranslational modification of proteins by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) is a key ...

CBIO-15NON-METABOLIC FUNCTION OF PHOSPHOFRUCTOKINASE-1 IN GLIOBLASTOMA MAINTENANCE [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains one of the most lethal tumors and is associated with a median survival of only approximately 15 months, despite aggressive combination radio-chemo-therapy. Regardless of recent advances in our understanding of this deadly disease, the molecular mechanisms/genes that cause high recurrence rates and ...

Fructose metabolism in Chromohalobacter salexigens: interplay between the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas and Entner–Doudoroff pathways [PDF]
Background The halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens metabolizes glucose exclusively through the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway, an adaptation which results in inefficient growth, with significant carbon overflow, especially at low salinity ...
