Conserved residues are functionally distinct within transketolases of different speciesC K Singleton
Department of Molecular Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee 37235, USA
Biochemistry 35:15865-9. 1996..In other TPP-utilizing enzymes, the equivalent residue of Q428 is a histidine and is thought to deprotonate the 4'-amino group...
Identification and characterization of the thiamine transporter gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiaeC K Singleton
Department of Molecular Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA
Gene 199:111-21. 1997..The level of transporter mRNA was found to be rapidly and dramatically reduced by the addition of thiamine to the growth medium...
Aspartate 155 of human transketolase is essential for thiamine diphosphate-magnesium binding, and cofactor binding is required for dimer formationJ J Wang
Department of Molecular Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA
Biochim Biophys Acta 1341:165-72. 1997..In support of this interpretation, binding of cofactor by wild type apo-transketolase required the presence of magnesium. Additionally, monomeric apo-his-transketolase required both magnesium and cofactor binding for dimer formation...

Department of Molecular Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee 37235
J Biol Chem 268:1397-404. 1993..Instead, the underlying mechanism must be extragenic and may be a result of differences in post-translational processing/modification of the transketolase polypeptide...
