Background:
Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, thus committing glucose to the glycolytic pathway. This gene encodes a ubiquitous form of hexokinase which localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hemolytic anemia due to hexokinase deficiency. Alternative splicing of this gene results in five transcript variants which encode different isoforms, some of which are tissue-specific. Each isoform has a distinct N-terminus; the remainder of the protein is identical among all the isoforms. A sixth transcript variant has been described, but due to the presence of several stop codons, it is not thought to encode a protein. Transcript Variant: Variant 4 (HKI-tb) has four testis-specific exons in the 5' end, one of which includes an additional 54 nt fragment unique to variants 4 and 5. Both variants 3 and 4 encode isoform HKI-ta/tb, which has a unique N-terminus. Isoform HKI-ta/tb lacks the porin binding domain (PBD) required for association with the mitochondrial membrane.

Other Names:
Hexokinase-1, Brain form hexokinase, Hexokinase type I, HK I, HK1

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP8141c was selected from the center region of human HK1-R468. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.

Gene Name: HK1 (HGNC:4922)

Gene ID: 3098
Primary Accession: P19367
Other Accession: Q5VTC3
Format: Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed.
