Biochem/physiol Actions

Fructose-6-phosphate kinase converts fructose-6-phosphate into fructose 1,6-bisphophate in the rate limiting step of the glycolysis cycle.

Physical form

Lyophilized powder containing sodium phosphate buffer and stabilizers with traces of inorganic pyrophosphate and dithiothreitol

Other Notes

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of pyrophosphate and fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-diphosphate and inorganic phosphate per min at pH 8.0 at 30 °C in the presence of 1μM fructose 2,6-diphosphate and 17 mM glucose 6-phosphate.
These two pyrophosphate-dependent fructose-6-phosphate kinases differ in their response to the physiological activator fructose 2,6-diphosphate [Fru (2,6)-P2]. The enzyme from Propionibacterium freudenreichii (F8381) reportedly is not affected by Fru (2,6)-P2. The enzyme from potato tubers (F2258) is stimulated by Fru (2,6)-P2 (half-maximal activation at 5.5 nM Fru (2,6)-P2 for potato tuber enzyme).

The role of pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (PFP) in developing leaves was studied using wild-type tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and transformants with decreased expression of PFP. (i) The leaf base, which is the youngest and most actively growing area of the leaf

Pyrophosphate: fructose 6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (PFP) activity was successfully down-regulated in sugarcane using constitutively expressed antisense and untranslatable forms of the sugarcane PFP-beta gene. In young internodal tissue activity was reduced by up to 70% while no residual activity could be

Long-distance movement of RNA through the phloem is known to occur, but the functional importance of these transported RNAs has remained unclear. Grafting experiments with a naturally occurring dominant gain-of-function leaf mutation in tomato were used to demonstrate long-distance movement

Inorganic pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase (PP(i)-PFK) of the amitochondriate eukaryote Mastigamoeba balamuthi was sequenced and showed about 60% identity to PP(i)-PFKs from two eubacteria, Propionibacterium freudenreichii and Sinorhizobium meliloti. These gene products represent a newly recognized lineage of PFKs. All four lineages

The intrinsic fluorescence of potato tuber pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (PFP) was used as an indicator of conformational changes due to ligand binding. Binding of the substrates and the allosteric activator fructose-2,6-bisphosphate was quantitatively compared to their respective kinetic effects on enzymatic
