General description

Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase C (EC 4.1.2.13; UniProt P09972; also known as Aldolase 3, Brain-type aldolasefructoaldolase C, Fructose-1,6-biphosphate triosephosphate lyase) is encoded by the ALDOC (also known as ALDC) gene (Gene ID 230) in human. Aldolases are glycolytic enzymes that catalyze the reversible aldol cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and fructose-1-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Three aldolase genes (ALDOA, ALDOB, ALDOC) are found in mammals that encode aldolase A, B, and C. Aldolase A is generally considered to be a muscle enzyme, aldolase B a liver enzyme, while aldolase C shows tissue-specific expression in adult brain with low activity in fetal tissues. Aldolase C expression is found in gray matter astrocytes and cells of the pia mater. Aldolase A and C mRNA expressions are mutually exclusive in murine central nervous system by in situ hybridization analysis, with aldolase A mRNA being detected in neurons and aldolase C in astrocytes, Purkinje cells, and some cells of the pia mater. Aldolase C can therefore be a useful marker of astrocytes, although Purkinje cells of the cerebellum also contain high levels of aldolase C.
