Regulation of ubiquitous 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase by the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway during myogenic C2C12 cell differentiation.

abstract：:Two hexokinases were characterized in Schizosaccharomyces pombe: hexokinase 1, with a low phosphorylation coefficient on glucose (Km 8.5 mM) and hexokinase 2, a kinetically conventional hexokinase. Genes hxk1+ and hxk2+ encoding these enzymes were cloned and sequenced. Disruption of hxk1+ had no effect on growth but d...
