Summary
TKFC (triokinase and FMN cyclase, HGNC:24552) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q12.2, encoding Triokinase/FMN cyclase (Q3LXA3). Catalyzes both the phosphorylation of dihydroxyacetone and of glyceraldehyde, and the splitting of ribonucleoside diphosphate-X compounds among which FAD is the best substrate.
This gene is a member of the family of dihydroxyacetone kinases, which have a protein structure distinct from other kinases. The product of this gene phosphorylates dihydroxyacetone, and also catalyzes the formation of riboflavin 4’,5’-phosphate (aka cyclin FMN) from FAD. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 6)
- Evidence supports that a single protein sustains both FMN cyclase and ATP-dependent Dha kinase activities, probably in a single active center (PMID:16289032)
- DAK, the physiological suppressor of cytoplasmic viral RNA sensor MDA5, specifically inhibits MDA5- but not RNA helicase RIG-I-mediated innate antiviral signaling. (PMID:17600090)
- The peptide fragment (m/z 520.3) of DAK is a promising biomarker to guide timing of antiviral treatment and to avoid liver biopsy in compensated chronic hepatitis B patients. (PMID:24289155)
- analysis of human triokinase/FMN cyclase reveals that kinase activity requires intact homodimers, but cyclase requires only a truncated, single domain subunit (PMID:24569995)

Function. Catalyzes both the phosphorylation of dihydroxyacetone and of glyceraldehyde, and the splitting of ribonucleoside diphosphate-X compounds among which FAD is the best substrate. Represses IFIH1-mediated cellular antiviral response.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with IFIH1 (via the CARD domains), the interaction is inhibited by viral infection.
Tissue specificity. Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level).
Disease relevance. Triokinase and FMN cyclase deficiency syndrome (TKFCD) [MIM:618805] An autosomal recessive disease characterized by cataracts and developmental delay that may be associated with cerebellar hypoplasia. Additional features may include liver dysfunction, microcytic anemia, and fatal cardiomyopathy with lactic acidosis following a febrile illness. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Each activity is inhibited by the substrate(s) of the other.
Cofactor. Manganese or cobalt are requested for FAD-AMP lyase activity.
Domain organisation. DhaK and DhaL domains have differential roles, individually DhaK is inactive and DhaL displays cyclase but not kinase activity.
Miscellaneous. Inactive as DHA kinase and FMN cyclase.
Similarity. Belongs to the dihydroxyacetone kinase (DAK) family.
