Identification of the thiamin salvage enzyme thiazole kinase in Arabidopsis and maize.
Yazdani M., Zallot R., Tunc-Ozdemir M., de Crecy-Lagard V., Shintani D.K., Hanson A.D.
The breakdown of thiamin (vitamin B1) and its phosphates releases a thiazole moiety, 4-methyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)thiazole (THZ), that microorganisms and plants are able to salvage for re-use in thiamin synthesis.

The breakdown of thiamin (vitamin B1) and its phosphates releases a thiazole moiety, 4-methyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)thiazole (THZ), that microorganisms and plants are able to salvage for re-use in thiamin synthesis. The salvage process starts with the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of THZ, which in bacteria is mediated by ThiM. The Arabidopsis and maize genomes encode homologs of ThiM (At3g24030 and GRMZM2G094558, respectively). Plasmid-driven expression of either plant homolog restored the ability of THZ to rescue Escherichia coli thiM deletant strains, showing that the plant proteins have ThiM activity in vivo. Enzymatic assays with purified recombinant proteins confirmed the presence of THZ kinase activity. Furthermore, ablating the Arabidopsis At3g24030 gene in a thiazole synthesis mutant severely impaired rescue by THZ. Collectively, these results show that ThiM homologs are the main source of THZ kinase activity in plants and are consequently crucial for thiamin salvage. << Less

The thiM locus and its relation to phosphorylation of hydroxyethylthiazole in Escherichia coli.
Mizote T., Nakayama H.
A mutant of Escherichia coli lacking hydroxyethylthiazole kinase (EC 2.7.1.50) was produced by a further mutation of a temperature-sensitive, auxotrophic mutant for hydroxyethylthiazole.

A mutant of Escherichia coli lacking hydroxyethylthiazole kinase (EC 2.7.1.50) was produced by a further mutation of a temperature-sensitive, auxotrophic mutant for hydroxyethylthiazole. The parent cells possessed two distinct enzymes capable of phosphorylating hydroxyethylthiazole: one was hydroxyethylthiazole kinase, and the other was a phosphotransferase species that required p-nitrophenylphosphate as a phosphoryl donor. Osmotic shock fluid prepared from the mutant cells phosphorylated hydroxyethylthiazole to an extent comparable to that observed with shock fluid from the parent cells, whereas extracts from shocked cells were unable to catalyze the kinase reaction. Shock fluid from a mutant of the other type obtained as a reduced phosphatase activity against p-nitrophenylphosphate did not show any appreciable activity for the phosphotransferase reaction, while extracts from shocked cells showed full kinase activity. The former mutant had lost its ability to grow on hydroxyethylthiazole at high temperature, but the latter mutant still responded to it. It thus appears that the kinase is an enzyme which might play a role in the biosynthesis of thiamine PPi in situ. By conjugation and P1 transduction, a gene governing hydroxyethylthiazole kinase activity, for which we propose the designation thiM, was mapped on the chromosome close to thiD, a gene specifying phosphomethylpyrimidine kinase activity. << Less

Characterization of the Bacillus subtilis thiC operon involved in thiamine biosynthesis.

The characterization of a three-gene operon (the thiC operon) at 331 min, which is involved in thiamine biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis, is described. The first gene in the operon is homologous to transcription activators in the lysR family. The second and third genes (thiK and thiC) have been subcloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. ThiK (30 kDa) catalyzes the phosphorylation of 4-methyl-5-(beta-hydroxyethyl)thiazole. ThiC (27 kDa) catalyzes the substitution of the pyrophosphate of 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine pyrophosphate by 4-methyl-5-(beta-hydroxyethyl)thiazole phosphate to yield thiamine phosphate. Transcription of the thiC operon is not regulated by thiamine or 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine and is only slightly repressed by 4-methyl-5-(beta-hydroxyethyl)thiazole. << Less
