GlycoFlux™ Human PDK2 Overexpression HepG2 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0925-JF657)

Description	GlycoFlux™ human PDK2 overexpression HepG2 cell line is a stable cell line designed to overexpress pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 2 (PDK2), which phosphorylates and inhibits the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, reducing glucose oxidation. PDK2 overexpression is associated with cancer progression and diabetes. Multiple isoforms exist through alternative splicing. This model supports metabolic disease research, tumor bioenergetics, and therapeutic targeting of PDK activity.
