TKT - transketolase Gene
Also Known as TK; TKT1; SDDHD; HEL107; HEL-S-48
Species: Homo sapiens
About TKT
This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 263 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 210.7), fat (RPKM 83.0) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a thiamine-dependent enzyme which plays a role in the channeling of excess sugar phosphates to glycolysis in the pentose phosphate pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]
