| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in red blood cells. Expressed in non-erythroid cells of the placenta.present in the syncytiotrophoblast layer of the placental villi at the feto-maternal interface (at protein level). |
| Post Translational Modifications | Glycation of Lys-159 in diabetic patients inactivates the enzyme. |
| Function | Plays a major role in regulating hemoglobin oxygen affinity by controlling the levels of its allosteric effector 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG). Also exhibits mutase activity. |
