About PFKFB2

Cytogenetic location: 1q32.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:207,034,416-207,081,027 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 286 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in thyroid (RPKM 25.6), duodenum (RPKM 11.7) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is involved in both the synthesis and degradation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, a regulatory molecule that controls glycolysis in eukaryotes. The encoded protein has a 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase activity that catalyzes the synthesis of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, and a fructose-2,6-biphosphatase activity that catalyzes the degradation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. This protein regulates fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels in the heart, while a related Enzyme encoded by a different gene regulates fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels in the liver and muscle. This Enzyme functions as a homodimer. Two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
