Aldolase C, fructose-bisphosphate (ALDOC, or ALDC), is an

fructose-1-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and either glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate or glyceraldehyde, respectively.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008][5][6]

Structure

ALDOC is one of the three aldolase

electrostatic surface of ALDOC is more negatively charged, which may serve as an acidic binding site or as a docking site to accommodate the C-terminal conformations.[8] Four ALDOC-specific residues (N90, V92, R96 and D100) may be key for ALDOC-specific functions.[9]

Function

ALDOC is a key enzyme in the fourth step of glycolysis, as well as in the reverse pathway

cerebellar Purkinje cells against excitotoxic insult.[10]

ALDOC is ubiquitously expressed in most tissues, though it is predominantly expressed in

ALDOA isoform is co-expressed with ALDOC in the central nervous system (CS), it is suggested that ALDOC contributes to CNS function outside of glycolysis.[9] Moreover, its presence within other cell types, such as platelets and mast cells (MCs), may serve as a failsafe in the case that the other predominant aldolase isozymes become inactivated.[11] Within cells, it localizes to the cytoplasm.[12]

Clinical significance

This aldolase has been associated with cancer.[8]

ALDOC is found to be upregulated in the brains of schizophrenia (SCZ) patients.[13] Notably, while ALDOC is differentially expressed in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) of male SCZ patients, it displays no significant changes in female SCZ patients, indicating that different regulatory mechanisms may be involved in male versus female SCZ patients. It is likely that ALDOC is involved in SCZ through its role in glycolysis, which is a central biochemical pathway in SCZ.[14]

Furthermore, ALDOC is reported to undergo

oxidation in brains affected by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). This oxidative modification inhibits ALDOC activity, causing the accumulation of fructose 1,6- bisphosphate and driving the reverse reaction, in the direction of gluconeogenesis rather than glycolysis, thus halting ATP production.[15]
