Summary: Enables melatonin binding activity and pyruvate kinase activity. Involved in pyruvate metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Gaucher's disease; congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia; malaria; pyruvate kinase deficiency of red cells; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PKLR (pyruvate kinase L/R) and PKM (pyruvate kinase M1/2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

What's a GeneRIF?

Studies of Thr298Cys mutant pyruvate kinase (PK) active site conclude that residue Thr298 is not critical for PK activity but plays a role in the activation of the water molecule and affects the pK that modulates catalytic activity.

Preferred Names: pyruvate kinase PYK2

NP_014992.3

EC 2.7.1.40

Pyruvate kinase; appears to be modulated by phosphorylation; transcription repressed by glucose, and Pyk2p may be active under low glycolytic flux; PYK2 has a paralog, CDC19, that arose from the whole genome duplication
