Thymidine kinase 2 mitochondrial (TK2) is a member of the DCK/DGK family. TK2 is an enzyme, a phosphotransferase (a kinase): 2'-deoxythymidine kinase, ATP-thymidine 5'-phosphotransferase. Thymidine kinase is found in most living cells. Thymidine kinase is present in 2 forms in mammalian cells, TK1 and TK2. Thymidine kinases have a central function in the synthesis of DNA and thus in cell division, since they are part of the exceptional reaction chain to introduce deoxythymidine into the DNA. TK2 is a deoxyribonucleoside kinase which specifically phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine. TK2 localizes to the mitochondria and is essential for mitochondrial DNA synthesis. TK2 gene defects are a cause of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome type 2 (MTDPS2).
TK2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 257 amino acids (34-265 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 30.2kDa.TK2 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | TK2: Deoxyribonucleoside kinase that phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine. Also phosphorylates anti-viral and anti-cancer nucleoside analogs. Defects in TK2 are a cause of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome type 2 (MTDPS2). A disorder characterized primarily by childhood onset of muscle weakness associated with depletion of mtDNA in skeletal muscle. There is wide clinical variability; some patients have onset in infancy and show a rapidly progressive course with early death due to respiratory failure, whereas others have later onset of a slowly progressive myopathy. Belongs to the DCK/DGK family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a deoxyribonucleoside kinase that specifically phosphorylates thymidine, deoxycytidine, and deoxyuridine. The encoded enzyme localizes to the mitochondria and is required for mitochondrial DNA synthesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with a myopathic form of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms, some of which lack transit peptide, so are not localized to mitochondria. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012] |
