Thiamin pyrophosphokinase (TPK, EC 2.7.6.2) catalyses phosphorylation of thiamin to thiamin pyrophosphate, an active enzyme cofactor.

Thiamin pyrophosphokinase (TPK, EC 2.7.6.2) catalyses phosphorylation of thiamin to thiamin pyrophosphate, an active enzyme cofactor. Here we describe the cloning of complete human TPK1 cDNA from an adult liver library. Human TPK1 is 89% identical to murine TPK1 at the protein level. The gene maps to chromosome 7q34-36, consists of at least eight exons, and spans a distance at least of 420 kb. The mRNA of human TPK1 is highly expressed in testis, small intestine and kidney with lesser but detectable expression in brain, liver, placenta and spleen. The availability of the human TPK1 gene will provide another useful tool for studying the role of this enzyme in human thiamin metabolism and deficiency state. << Less

Thiamin pyrophosphokinase catalyzes the pyrophosphorylation of thiamin to thiamin pyrophosphate in the presence of ATP and Mg2+. The kinetic properties of human thiamin pyrophosphokinase (hTPK1) were investigated using purified histidine-tagged recombinant protein. The plots of the initial velocity against MgATP concentrations gave a sigmoidal character when Mg2+/ATP was maintained at 1. However, the addition of an excess amount of Mg2+ resulted in the restoration of activity at lower concentrations of MgATP. A steady-state kinetics study led us to conclude that the kinase reaction obeys a ping-pong mechanism. Site-directed mutagenesis was also performed on hTPK1 to examine the contributions of eight strictly conserved residues in thiamin pyrophosphokinase on the kinetic properties. Mutations D71N, D73N, and D100N reduced kcat markedly, indicating that these aspartic acids play a crucial role in carrying out the catalytic process of hTPK1. A selective decrease in the kcat/Km(thiamin) value was observed in the D133N mutant, whereas the kcat/Km(ATP) values of T99A and R131G were significantly decreased. Interestingly, the replacement of Gln-96 with Glu caused an increase in the kcat/Km(thiamin) value (3.53-fold of the wild-type). It was therefore suggested that the residues Gln-96, Thr-99, Arg-131, and Asp-133 are conserved as functionally significant components for substrate recognition in thiamin pyrophosphokinase. << Less

Pyrithiamine as a substrate for thiamine pyrophosphokinase.

Thiamine pyrophosphokinase transfers a pyrophosphate group from a nucleoside triphosphate, such as ATP, to the hydroxyl group of thiamine to produce thiamine pyrophosphate. Deficiencies in thiamine can result in the development of the neurological disorder Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome as well as the potentially fatal cardiovascular disease wet beriberi. Pyrithiamine is an inhibitor of thiamine metabolism that induces neurological symptoms similar to that of Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome in animals. However, the mechanism by which pyrithiamine interferes with cellular thiamine phosphoester homeostasis is not entirely clear. We used kinetic assays coupled with mass spectrometry of the reaction products and x-ray crystallography of an equilibrium reaction mixture of thiamine pyrophosphokinase, pyrithiamine, and Mg2+/ATP to elucidate the mechanism by which pyrithiamine inhibits the enzymatic production of thiamine pyrophosphate. Three lines of evidence support the ability of thiamine pyrophosphokinase to form pyrithiamine pyrophosphate. First, a coupled enzyme assay clearly demonstrated the ability of thiamine pyrophosphokinase to produce AMP when pyrithiamine was used as substrate. Second, an analysis of the reaction mixture by mass spectrometry directly identified pyrithiamine pyrophosphate in the reaction mixture. Last, the structure of thiamine pyrophosphokinase crystallized from an equilibrium substrate/product mixture shows clear electron density for pyrithiamine pyrophosphate bound in the enzyme active site. This structure also provides the first clear picture of the binding pocket for the nucleoside triphosphate and permits the first detailed understanding of the catalytic requirements for catalysis in this enzyme. << Less

Pig brain thiamine pyrophosphokinase (ATP: thiamine pyrophosphotransferase, EC 2.7.6.2) was purified 260-fold over extracts of brain acetone powder. A direct, radiometric assay was used to follow the purification. By isoelectric focusing, the purified enzyme appeared to have an isoionic point of approx. pH 4.2, but these preparations were still not homogeneous by disc-gel electrophoresis nor by analytical ultracentrifugation. The purified enzyme has a broad pH optimum extending from pH 8.3 to 9.3 in 0.028 M phosphate/glycylglycine buffers. For optimal enzymatic activity, the ratio of magnesium to ATP must be fixed at 0.6, which suggests that for this ATP-pyrophosphoryl transfer reaction, the enzymatically preferred reactant may be Mg(ATP)6-/2. A preliminary study of the kinetics of the reaction reveals that the enzyme may function via a partial "ping-pong" mechanism; on this basis, dissociation constants for ATPt and for thiamine were evaluated. Pyrithiamine, butylthiamine, ethylthiamine, and oxythiamine appeared to be competitive inhibitors with respect to thiamine as the variable substrate, and their inhibitor dissociation constants were calculated. The relatively poor affinity of oxythiamine to the enzyme emphasizes the 4-amino group in the pyrimidine ring as one of the specificity requirements for thiamine pyrophosphokinase. Preliminary values for the apparent equilibrium coefficient of the thiamine pyrophosphokinase-catalyzed reaction, in terms of total species, has been approximated at several initial concentrations of reactants: e.g. K'eq,app = (see article) 9.66 - 10(-3) M; and [Th]initial - 1 - 10(-6) and 2 - 10(-6) M, respectively, where TDP, Th, t and eq represent thiamine diphosphate, thiamine, total concentration and equilibrium concentration, respectively. << Less

<h4>Background</h4>Thiamin pyrophosphokinase (TPK) catalyzes the transfer of a pyrophosphate group from ATP to vitamin B1 (thiamin) to form the coenzyme thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP). Thus, TPK is important for the formation of a coenzyme required for central metabolic functions. TPK has no sequence homologs in the PDB and functions by an unknown mechanism. The TPK structure has been determined as a significant step toward elucidating its catalytic action.<h4>Results</h4>The crystal structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae TPK complexed with thiamin has been determined at 1.8 A resolution. TPK is a homodimer, and each subunit consists of two domains. One domain resembles a Rossman fold with four alpha helices on each side of a 6 strand parallel beta sheet. The other domain has one 4 strand and one 6 strand antiparallel beta sheet, which form a flattened sandwich structure containing a jelly-roll topology. The active site is located in a cleft at the dimer interface and is formed from residues from domains of both subunits. The TPK dimer contains two compound active sites at the subunit interface.<h4>Conclusions</h4>The structure of TPK with one substrate bound identifies the location of the thiamin binding site and probable catalytic residues. The structure also suggests a likely binding site for ATP. These findings are further supported by TPK sequence homologies. Although possessing no significant sequence homology with other pyrophospokinases, thiamin pyrophosphokinase may operate by a mechanism of pyrophosphoryl transfer similar to those described for pyrophosphokinases functioning in nucleotide biosynthesis. << Less
