L. donovani has a single PFK gene copy per haploid genome that encodes a polypeptide with a deduced molecular mass of 53 988 and a pI of . The predicted amino acid sequence contains a C-terminal tripeptide that conforms to an established signal for glycosome targeting. L. donovani PFK showed most sequence similarity to inorganic pyroppospha e PPj-dependent PFKs despite being ATP-dependent. It thereby resembles PFKs from other Kinetoplastida such as Trypanosoma brucei Trypanoplasma borreli characterized in this study and a PFK found in Entamoeba histolytica. It exhibited hyperbolic kinetics with respect to ATP whereas the binding of the other substrate fructose 6-phosphate showed slight positive cooperativity. PPi even at high concentrations did not have any effect. AMP acted as an atcií-vator of PFK shifting its kinetics for fructose 6-phosphate from slightlysigmoid to hyperbolic and increasing considerably the atlf ni ì t v for this substrate whereas GDP did not have any ehem MCd e lIngt ttudies and siae-dianraed muati-genesis were employed to shed light on the structural basis for the AMP effector specificity and
