HXK I Monoclonal Antibody

catalytic activity:ATP + D-hexose = ADP + D-hexose 6-phosphate.,disease:Defects in HK1 are the cause of hexokinase deficiency [MIM:235700]. Hexokinase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disease with nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia as the predominant clinical feature.,domain:The N- and C-terminal halves of this hexokinase show extensive sequence similarity to each other. The catalytic activity is associated with the C-terminus while regulatory function is associated with the N-terminus.,enzyme regulation:Hexokinase is an allosteric enzyme inhibited by its product Glc-6-P.,miscellaneous:In vertebrates there are four major glucose-phosphorylating isoenzymes, designated hexokinase I, II, III and IV (glucokinase).,online information:Hexokinase entry,pathway:Carbohydrate metabolism; hexose metabolism.,similarity:Belongs to the hexokinase family.,subcellular location:Its hydrophobic N-terminal sequence may be involved in membrane binding.,subunit:Monomer.,tissue specificity:Isoform 2 is erythrocyte specific; isoform 3 and isoform 4 are testis-specific.,
