Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name Transketolase
Synonyms
  1. TK
Gene Name TKT
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Catalyzes the reversible transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from sedoheptulose-7-phosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, producing xylulose-5-phosphate and ribose-5-phosphate. 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.
