Systematic name YAL038W
Gene name CDC19
Aliases PYK1
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr I:71786..73288
Primary SGDID S000000036


Description of YAL038W: Pyruvate kinase; functions as a homotetramer in glycolysis to convert phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate, the input for aerobic (TCA cycle) or anaerobic (glucose fermentation) respiration; CDC19 has a paralog, PYK2, that arose from the whole genome duplication[1][2]
