Thiamin Pyrophosphokinase 1/TPK1 Protein(C-6His) (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Thiamin pyrophosphokinase 1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Ser243 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Met 1-Ser243. Fusion tag: C-6His Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Protein function: Thiamin pyrophosphokinase 1 (TPK1), belongs to the thiamine pyrophosphokinase family. TPK1 exists as a homodimer, and is detected in heart, kidney, testis, small intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes, and at very low levels in a variety of tissues. TPK1 can catalyze the phosphorylation of thiamine to thiamine pyrophosphate. It can also catalyze the phosphorylation of pyrithiamine to pyrithiamine pyrophosphate. Protein function: Catalyzes the phosphorylation of thiamine to thiamine pyrophosphate. Can also catalyze the phosphorylation of pyrithiamine to pyrithiamine pyrophosphate. [The UniProt Consortium]
