Anticorps PKM (YY-3): sc-100538

PKM Antibody (YY-3) is an IgM mouse monoclonal PKM antibody (also designated PKM antibody or pyruvate kinase M1/2 antibody) that detects PKM of mouse, rat and human origin by WB, IP and ELISA. PKM Antibody (YY-3) is available as the non-conjugated anti-PKM antibody form. In mammals, four different isoenzymes exist for pyruvate kinase. Based on their tissue distribution, the isoenzymes are designated L-type (for predominant expression in the liver), R-type (for predominant expression in red blood cells), M1-type (for predominant expression in muscle, brain and heart) and M2-type (for predominant expression in fetal tissues). Pyruvate kinases are responsible for catalyzing the final step in glycolysis: the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate with the coinciding generation of ATP. The PKM (pyruvate kinase, muscle) gene encodes the M1- and M2-type isoenzymes through alternative splicing events. Both M1- and M2-type isoforms exists as tetramers and are stimulated by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. In addition, both isoforms exhibit thyroid hormone binding activity and may be referred to as CTHBP (cytosolic thyroid hormone-binding protein) or THBP1. The M2-type isoform also interacts with Oct-4 via its C-terminal domain, functioning to enhance Oct-4 transcriptional activity.
