Background
This gene is regulated as part of the p53 tumor suppressor pathway and encodes a protein with sequence similarity to the bisphosphate domain of the glycolytic enzyme that degrades fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. The protein functions by blocking glycolysis and directing the pathway into the pentose phosphate shunt. Expression of this protein also protects cells from DNA damaging reactive oxygen species and provides some protection from DNA damage-induced apoptosis. The 12p13.32 region that includes this gene is paralogous to the 11q13.3 region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:Beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate + H(2)O = D-fructose 6-phosphate + phosphate.,caution:Not expected to have any kinase activity.,function:Probable fructose-biphosphatase. Lowers cellular levels of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Protects cells against reactive oxygen species and against apoptosis induced by tp53.,induction:Rapidly up-regulated by TP53.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the phosphoglycerate mutase family.,
