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 named as PKM1/M2. The activity of the M2 isoform (but not the M1 isoform) can be inhibited by tyrosine kinase signalling in tumourcells. The primary pyruvate kinase isoform before tumour development is PK-M1; however, the primary isoform from four independent tumours is PK-M2 (PMID:18337823). The immunogen of this antibody is M2 isoform and this antibody is specific to PKM2 isoform.
