Protein Information
Name	PGK1
Synonyms	PGKA
Function	Catalyzes one of the two ATP producing reactions in the glycolytic pathway via the reversible conversion of 1,3- diphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate (PubMed:30323285, PubMed:7391028). Both L- and D- forms of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides can be used as substrates, but the activity is much lower on pyrimidines (PubMed:18463139). In addition to its role as a glycolytic enzyme, it seems that PGK1 acts as a polymerase alpha cofactor protein (primer recognition protein) (PubMed:2324090). Acts as a protein kinase when localized to the mitochondrion where it phosphorylates pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase PDK1 to inhibit pyruvate dehydrogenase complex activity and suppress the formation of acetyl- coenzyme A from pyruvate, and consequently inhibit oxidative phosphorylation and promote glycolysis (PubMed:26942675, PubMed:36849569). May play a role in sperm motility (PubMed:26677959).
Cellular Location	Cytoplasm, cytosol. Mitochondrion matrix. Note=Hypoxic conditions promote mitochondrial targeting (PubMed:26942675). Targeted to the mitochondrion following phosphorylation by MAPK1/ERK2, cis-trans isomerization by PIN1, and binding to mitochondrial circRNA mcPGK1 (PubMed:36849569).
Tissue Location	Mainly expressed in spermatogonia. Localized on the principle piece in the sperm (at protein level). Expression significantly decreased in the testis of elderly men
