TKT Protein, Human (His)

TKT proteins are essential for catalyzing the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor. This process is facilitated by the formation of a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. TKT Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived TKT protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of TKT Protein, Human (His) is 622 a.a., .

TKT protein is essential for catalyzing the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor. This process is facilitated by the formation of a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. The enzymatic activity of TKT protein plays a critical role in various metabolic pathways, including the pentose phosphate pathway and the Calvin cycle. The transfer of the ketol group is a key step in these pathways, enabling the conversion of sugars and the generation of important intermediates for energy production and biosynthesis. TKT protein's function is crucial for maintaining metabolic flux and contributing to the overall balance of carbohydrate metabolism in the cell.
