PCK1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 646 amino acids (1-622) and having a molecular mass of 71.7kDa.PCK1 is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
PCK1 is a central regulating point for the regulation of gluconeogenesis. PCK1 has a vital part in this process by stimulating hepatic glucose production. The expression of PCK1 is controlled by insulin, cAMP, glucagon, glucocorticoids and diet. Modulation of the signals controlling PCK1 levels offers a possible therapeutic tactic to the treatment of Insulin resistance and subsequently obesity.
