Common Namebeta-D-Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate
DescriptionBeta-D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is a member of the chemical class known as Pentoses. These are monosaccharides in which the carbohydrate moiety contains five carbon atoms. The hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate is a key reaction of carbohydrate metabolism. (PMID 3008716 ) Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (F-1,6-P2) is an allosteric activator of two key enzymes of glycolysis: phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase. (PMID 18025560 ) In gluconeogenesis, fructose 6-phosphate is formed from fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, and if fructose 1,6-bisphosphate were reformed by the phosphofructokinase reaction there would be a "gluconeogenic futile cycle". (PMID 6217196 ) Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) aldolase is an essential glycolytic enzyme that reversibly cleaves its ketohexose substrate into triose phosphates. (PMID 14699122 ) Fructose 1-phosphate is a metabolite that plays a regulatory role in metabolism and is best measured using an assay based on its conversion to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate by a bacterial fructose-1-phosphate kinase (Fru1PK). (PMID 10833389 ) For growth, the assimilated fructose is sequentially phosphorylated by ATP and (i) manno(fructo)kinase, to form fructose 6-phosphate, and (ii) phosphofructokinase, to form fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, which is a member of central routes of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.
