title: Influence of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate on the phosphofructokinase/fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase cycle.
abstract: In a reconstituted enzyme system multiple stationary states and oscillatory motions of the substrate cycle catalyzed by phosphofructokinase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase are significantly influenced by fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Depending on the initial conditions, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate was found either to generate or to extinguish oscillatory motions between glycolytic and gluconeogenic states. In general, stable glycolytic modes are favored because of the efficient activation of phosphofructokinase by this effector. The complex effect of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate on the rate of substrate cycling correlates with its synergistic cooperation with AMP in the activation of phosphofructokinase and inhibition of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase.
