Also known as CDC8TYMKTMPK

Summary

DTYMK (deoxythymidylate kinase, HGNC:3061) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q37.3, encoding Thymidylate kinase (P23919). Catalyzes the phosphorylation of thymidine monophosphate (dTMP) to thymidine diphosphate (dTDP), the immediate precursor for the DNA building block dTTP, with ATP as the preferred phosphoryl donor in the presence of Mg(2+). It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 92.0% of cancer cell lines).

Enables ATP binding activity and dTMP kinase activity. Involved in dTDP biosynthetic process and thymidine biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion.

  • Lentiviral delivery of small hairpin RNA targeting TMPK in combination with a low dose of doxorubicin as a new approach to kill colon cancer cells regardless of p53 status. (PMID:18413751)
  • these findings suggest that Tip60-ATM signaling has a functional contribution to the recruitment of TMPK to DNA damage sites, thereby increasing local dTTP synthesis for DNA repair. (PMID:30199284)
  • The RAMD simulations on product-bound structures of both ttTMPK and hTMPK, revealed that while several exit patterns of the products are permissible, the sequential exit mode is the most preferred pattern for both ttTMPK and hTMPK enzymes. Additionally, the product release from the hTMPK was found to be faster and more directional as compared to ttTMPK (PMID:30447376)

Function. Catalyzes the phosphorylation of thymidine monophosphate (dTMP) to thymidine diphosphate (dTDP), the immediate precursor for the DNA building block dTTP, with ATP as the preferred phosphoryl donor in the presence of Mg(2+).

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer.

Disease relevance. Neurodegeneration, childhood-onset, with progressive microcephaly (CONPM) [MIM:619847] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by global developmental delay apparent from infancy. Most severely affected individuals have severe and progressive microcephaly, early-onset seizures, lack of visual tracking, and almost no developmental milestones, resulting in early death. Less severely affected individuals have a small head circumference and severely impaired intellectual development with poor speech and motor delay. Additional features may include poor overall growth, axial hypotonia, limb hypertonia with spasticity, undescended testes, and cerebral atrophy with neuronal loss. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Pathway. Pyrimidine metabolism; dTTP biosynthesis.

Similarity. Belongs to the thymidylate kinase family.
