TYMP
geneOn this page
Summary
TYMP (thymidine phosphorylase, HGNC:3148) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q13.33, encoding Thymidine phosphorylase (P19971). May have a role in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels.
This gene encodes an angiogenic factor which promotes angiogenesis in vivo and stimulates the in vitro growth of a variety of endothelial cells. It has a highly restricted target cell specificity acting only on endothelial cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.

Function. May have a role in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels. Has growth promoting activity on endothelial cells, angiogenic activity in vivo and chemotactic activity on endothelial cells in vitro. Catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of thymidine. The produced molecules are then utilized as carbon and energy sources or in the rescue of pyrimidine bases for nucleotide synthesis.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer.
Disease relevance. Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 1, MNGIE type (MTDPS1) [MIM:603041] A multisystem disease associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. It is clinically characterized by onset between the second and fifth decades of life, ptosis, progressive external ophthalmoplegia, gastrointestinal dysmotility (often pseudoobstruction), diffuse leukoencephalopathy, cachexia, peripheral neuropathy, and myopathy. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Pathway. Pyrimidine metabolism; dTMP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; dTMP from thymine: step 1/2.
Similarity. Belongs to the thymidine/pyrimidine-nucleoside phosphorylase family.
