6-phosphofructokinase, muscle type is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PFKM gene on chromosome 12. Three

Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009][4]

Structure

Gene

This gene is found on chromosome 12.[4] The coding region in PFKM only shares a 68% similarity with that of the liver-type PFKL.[5]

Protein

This 85-kDa protein is one of two subunit types that comprise the seven tetrameric PFK isozymes.

PFK-1) is composed solely of PFKM.[6][8][9]
The liver PFK (PFK-5) contains solely the second subunit type, PFKL, while the erythrocyte PFK includes five isozymes composed of different combinations of PFKM and PFKL.
citrate is found in the PFKL C-terminal region.[11]

Function

This gene encodes one of three protein subunits of PFK, which are expressed and combined to form the tetrameric PFK in a tissue-specific manner. As a PFK subunit, PFKL is involved in catalyzing the phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. This irreversible reaction serves as the major rate-limiting step of glycolysis.[6][9][10][12]

Though the PFKM subunit majorly incorporates into muscle and erythrocyte PFKs, PFKM also is expressed in the

testis.[13]

Clinical significance

As the erythrocyte PFK is composed of both PFKL and PFKM, this heterogeneic composition is attributed with the differential PFK activity and organ involvement observed in some inherited PFK deficiency states in which myopathy or hemolysis or both can occur, such as glycogenosis type VII, also known as Tarui disease.[6][9][14] Notably, mutations in PFKM have been shown to cause Tarui disease due to homozygosity for catalytically inactive M subunits.[7][14] PFKM is confirmed to be involved in muscle PFK deficiency with early-onset hyperuricemia.[7]

Even though PFKM functions to drive glycolysis, its overexpression has been associated with

oxidation of free fatty acids and accumulation of citrate and acetyl-CoA.[14]
