High impact information on Pfkm

  • These results demonstrate that CAV-1 creates binding sites for PFK and ALD that may be of higher affinity than those binding sites localized in the cytoplasm [1].
  • The localization of aldolase (ALD) was also shifted towards the plasma membrane (and colocalized with PFK) in CAV-1 over-expressing cells [1].
  • We conclude that CAV-1 functions as a scaffolding protein for PFK, ALD and perhaps other glycolytic enzymes, either through direct interaction or accessory proteins, thus contributing to compartmented metabolism in vascular smooth muscle [1].
  • Protein kinase C (PKC)-delta, PKC-gamma, stress-activated protein kinase, cAMP-dependent protein kinase beta isoform, Janus protein kinase, and phosphofructokinase M were all down regulated chronically with citalopram and fluoxetine, but not with acute fluoxetine [2].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Pfkm

  • Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy was used to study the distribution of phosphofructokinase (PFK) and CAV-1 in the transfected cells [1].
