Recombinant Human HK2 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: HK2-4824H
• Product Overview: Human HK2 full-length ORF ( NP_000180.2, 1 a.a. - 917 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Description: Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. This gene encodes hexokinase 2, the predominant form found in skeletal muscle. It localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. Expression of this gene is insulin-responsive, and studies in rat suggest that it is involved in the increased rate of glycolysis seen in rapidly growing cancer cells. [provided by RefSeq
