  • probable fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase TIGAR
Background InformationTIGAR (TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator) is a p53-inducible protein that is thought to diminish levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and this may also contribute to p53 protecting from genomic damage. TIGAR’s ability to lower ROS levels may also have an important role to play in the autophagic response. It is known to decrease levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate and in turn inhibits glycolysis. Under ischemic stress, recent research has shown that TIGAR and p53 can regulate cellular energy homeostasis and apoptosis.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis 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].

Purification MethodAffinity Purfied
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Probable fructose-biphosphatase. Lowers cellular levels of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Protects cells against reactive oxygen species and against apoptosis induced by TP53/p53.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate + H2O = D-fructose 6-phosphate + phosphate.

INDUCTION: Rapidly up-regulated by TP53/p53.

PTM: Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the phosphoglycerate mutase family.

CAUTION: Not expected to have any kinase activity.
