Disease relevance of PFKFB3

 

High impact information on PFKFB3

  • PFK-2/FBPase-2: maker and breaker of the essential biofactor fructose-2,6-bisphosphate [5].
  • Increased expression of the enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK-2) enhanced F2,6BP production and, consequently, cellular lactate production [6].
  • In addition, IGF-1 promoted the binding of endogenous PFK-2 to 14-3-3s [7].
  • These findings suggest that PKB-dependent binding of 14-3-3s to phospho-Ser483 of cardiac PFK-2 mediates the stimulation of glycolysis by growth factor [7].
  • When HeLa cells expressing HA-tagged PFK-2 were co-transfected with active PKB or stimulated with IGF-1, HA-PFK-2 was phosphorylated and bound to 14-3-3s [7].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of PFKFB3

  • A key regulator of glycolytic flux is fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, and its steady state concentration is regulated by the action of different isozymes product of four genes (pfkfb1-4). pfkfb3 has been found in proliferating cells and tumors, being induced by hypoxia [8].
  • Moreover, the thermostability of PFK-2 and the affinity of this enzyme for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate were increased upon transformation by Rous sarcoma virus [9].

Anatomical context of PFKFB3

 

Associations of PFKFB3 with chemical compounds

  • Phosphorylation of the 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase/PFKFB3 family of glycolytic regulators in human cancer [10].
  • Inhibition of inducible PFK-2 protein expression decreased the intracellular level of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate, a product of the pentose phosphate pathway and an important precursor for nucleic acid biosynthesis [13].
  • We recently cloned an inducible isozyme of 6-phosphofructo-2 kinase (iPFK-2) that bears an oncogene-like regulatory element in its mRNA and functions to produce fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, which is a powerful allosteric activator of glycolysis [14].
  • Treatment of human thymocytes with different anti-CD69 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), in the presence of submitogenic doses of phorbol ester, produced an enhanced release of lactate without significant alterations in Fru 2,6-P2 levels or phosphofructokinase-2 (PFK-2) and pyruvate kinase activities [15].
  • Forced expression of the iPFK-2/PFKFB3 in COS-7 cells resulted in increased glucose uptake and cellular F2,6BP content [16].
  • We then overexpressed PFKFB3 and observed no change in glucose metabolism but rather a marked increase in cell proliferation [17].
 

Enzymatic interactions of PFKFB3

 

Other interactions of PFKFB3

  • The basal level of PFKFB-4 protein expression in gastric cancers was much higher as compared to the PFKFB-3 isoenzyme [2].
  • PFKFB3 (iPFK2) is one of four tissue-specific PFKFB isozymes that have been identified to date [11].
  • The heterogeneity of human brain PFK-2/FBPase-2 isoforms is generated by alternative splicing [19].
  • The bifunctional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK-2/FBPase-2) has been identified as an activating binding partner of beta-cell GK, increasing the V(max) value of the enzyme, while the S(0.5) value for glucose remains unchanged [20].
  • Molecular modelling of the PFK-2 domain revealed that, instead, it has the same fold as adenylate kinase [21].
