Enzymes

General function:
Energy production and conversion
Specific function:
Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate.
Gene Name:
TKTL1
Uniprot ID:
Q2NL26
Molecular weight:
64966.0
General function:
Energy production and conversion
Specific function:
Plays an essential role in total transketolase activity and cell proliferation in cancer cells; after transfection with anti-TKTL1 siRNA, total transketolase activity dramatically decreases and proliferation was significantly inhibited in cancer cells. Plays a pivotal role in carcinogenesis (By similarity).
