General description
Pyruvate kinase (PKLR) is a liver/erythrocyte-specific enzyme that exists as a tetramer. It comprises structural and functional domains namely N. A and C domains. The C domain is erythrocyte-specific and the A domain is active site residues. The PKLR gene is mapped to human chromosome 1q22.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human PKLR
Application
Anti-PKLR antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pyruvate kinase (PKLR) is needed for energy generation in erythrocytes. Deficiency of PKLR in mice reduces the risk of blood-stage malarial parasite Plasmodium chabaudi induced infection.
Physical form
Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.
Other Notes
Synthetic peptide located within the following region: STSIIATIGPASRSVERLKEMIKAGMNIARLNFSHGSHEYHAESIANVRE
