关于PGK1: PGK1 is called phosphoglycerate kinase that involved in a critical energy-producing process known as glycolysis. Phosphoglycerate kinase helps carry out a chemical reaction that converts a molecule called 1,3-diphosphoglycerate, which is produced during the breakdown of glucose, to another molecule called 3-phosphoglycerate during glycolysis. PGK1 The encoded protein may also act as a cofactor for polymerase alpha.. The protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions.
