Fructokinase

spinqualitylabelsall models Fructokinase with ADP and Fructose bound in the active site 3lm9 Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image   Print3D Function Fructokinase (FRK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose to fructose-1-phosphate using ATP as phosphate source in plants, bacteria and animals. In plants and bacteria FRK regulates starch synthesis. In animals it produces oxalate and its precursors. Fructokinase with ADP and Fructose bound in the active site (3lm9). Water molecules shown as red spheres. Relevance Inhibitors of FRK C may block sugar-associated metabolic syndromes. Disease FRK deficiency in the liver causes the inherited metabolic disorder Fructosuria.
