Background Information
PKM, also named as OIP3, PK2, PK3, PKM, p58, THBP1, CTHBP and Tumor M2-PK, belongs to the pyruvate kinase family. It is glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP, generating ATP. It stimulates POU5F1-mediated transcriptional activation. PKM plays a general role in caspase independent cell death of tumor cells. PKM has 2 isoforms,the activity of the M2 isoform can be inhibited by tyrosine kinase signalling in tumourcells. The immunogen of this antibody is M2 isoform and this antibody is specific to PKM2 isoform.
