Native Rabbit Pyruvate Kinase

• Description:

  Pyruvate kinase is an enzyme involved in glycolysis. It catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP, yielding one molecule of pyruvate and one molecule of ATP.

• Applications:

  Pyruvate kinase from rabbit muscle has been used in a structural study to understand the reaction mechanism of the final step in glycolysis. It has also been used in a study to investigate ATP-dependent phosphorylation of α-substituted carboxylic acids.

• Activity:

  ~250 U/mg protein

• Storage Conditions:

  −20°C

• CAS Number:

  9001-59-6
