GlycoFlux™ Human HK2 Overexpression Jurkat Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0925-JF759)

Description	GlycoFlux™ human HK2 overexpression Jurkat cell line is a stable cell line engineered to express hexokinase 2 (HK2), the predominant skeletal muscle isoform that phosphorylates glucose and localizes to mitochondria. Its expression is insulin-responsive, and overexpression is implicated in cancer glycolysis. This model supports research into insulin-driven glycolysis, tumor metabolism, and glycoengineering-based regulation of energy pathways in immune cells.

Target	HK2
Full Name	Hexokinase 2
Alternative Name	HKII; HXK2
Location	2p12
Gene ID	3099
Summary	Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. This gene encodes hexokinase 2, the predominant form found in skeletal muscle. It localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. Expression of this gene is insulin-responsive, and studies in rat suggest that it is involved in the increased rate of glycolysis seen in rapidly growing cancer cells.
