Phylogenetic Study of the Evolution of PEP-Carboxykinase
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) is the key enzyme to initiate the gluconeogenic pathway in vertebrates, yeast, plants and most bacteria. Nucleotide specificity divided all PCKs into two groups. All the eukaryotic mammalian and most archaeal PCKs are GTP-specifi c. Bacterial and fungal PCKs c...
