About TYMS

Cytogenetic location: 18p11.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:657,653-673,578 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 46.3), testis (RPKM 32.5) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

Thymidylate Synthase catalyzes the methylation of deoxyuridylate to deoxythymidylate using, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (methylene-THF) as a cofactor. This function maintains the dTMP (thymidine-5-prime monophosphate) pool critical for DNA replication and repair. The Enzyme has been of interest as a target for Cancer chemotherapeutic agents. It is considered to be the primary site of action for 5-fluorouracil, 5-fluoro-2-prime-deoxyuridine, and some folate analogs. Expression of this gene and that of a naturally occurring antisense transcript, mitochondrial Enolase superfamily member 1 (GeneID:55556), vary inversely when cell-growth progresses from late-log to plateau phase. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with etiology of neoplasia, including breast Cancer, and response to chemotherapy. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
