Rat liver and bovine heart 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase were purified by the same procedure. Compared with the liver enzyme, the heart enzyme had a smaller apparent Mr, different kinetic properties, was not inactivated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and contained less fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase activity. These differences suggest that heart and liver 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase are distinct isoenzymes. Likewise, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase from rat heart and skeletal muscle was not inactivated on treatment with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.
