PKL refers to the liver isoform of pyruvate kinase, an enzyme that catalyzes the final step of glycolysis.

• PKL is normally highly expressed in liver tissue and is involved in efficiently channeling glycolytic intermediates into pyruvate and subsequently into energy production pathways.

• In cancer, metabolic reprogramming (the Warburg effect) is widespread. While many tumors adopt the PKM2 isoform to support rapid proliferation, alterations in PKL expression have been observed particularly in liver cancers, and some extrahepatic tumors where pancreatic or biliary differentiation is involved.
