Contents |
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[1].
Relevance
Inhibitors of FRK C may block sugar-associated metabolic syndromes.
Disease
FRK deficiency in the liver causes the inherited metabolic disorder Fructosuria[2].
