Summary
TKTL1 (transketolase like 1, HGNC:11835) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq28, encoding Transketolase-like protein 1 (P51854). Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate.
The protein encoded by this gene is a transketolase that acts as a homodimer and catalyzes the conversion of sedoheptulose 7-phosphate and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to D-ribose 5-phosphate and D-xylulose 5-phosphate. This reaction links the pentose phosphate pathway with the glycolytic pathway. Variations in this gene may be the cause of Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. During fetal neocortex development, may be essential to maintain the full number of basal radial glia (bRG). bRG are neural progenitor cells that undergo asymmetric divisions, generating a bRG (self-renewal) and a neuron, in contrast to basal intermediate progenitors (bIPs), which typically divide once to give rise to 2 neurons. bRG generate more cortical neurons over time than bIPs.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed. Expressed in endothelial cells and in peripheral neurons (at protein level). Not expressed in fetal neocortex. Expressed in fetal neocortex.
Cofactor. Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit. Can also utilize other divalent metal cations, such as Ca(2+), Mn(2+) and Co(2+). Binds 1 thiamine pyrophosphate per subunit.
Polymorphism. Variant Lys-317 is typically present in extinct archaic humans, Neanderthals and Denisovans, as well as in other primates. It is rare in modern human population with a frequency of 0.03%. No homozygote is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v2.1.1). The modern human variant Arg-317 is thought to lead to a greater neocortical neurogenesis compared to archaic human Lys-317, in particular in the frontal lobe. It is currently unknown if the presence of variant Lys-317 in modern humans is associated with a disease or has any effect on cognitive skills.
Similarity. Belongs to the transketolase family.
