Studies of thiamine biosynthesis
… coli, and other prokaryotes, thiamine (vitamin B1) is assembled by coupling 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine pyrophosphate (Hmp-PP) and 4-methyl-5-(?-hydroxyethyl)thiazole phosphate (Thz-P). The thiazole moiety is biosynthesised from 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate, tyrosine, and …

Exploring Prokaryotic Thiamin Biosynthesis: Mechanistic Studies On Thiamin Thiazole Synthase And Pyrimidine Synthase
Thiamin (Vitamin B1) is made from a coupling a thiazole and a pyrimidine unit, which are assembled separately. Studies have shown that the biosyntheses of thiazole and pyrimidine are different in prokaryotes versus eukaryotes. Understanding of thiamin biosynthesis is still incomplete and a lot of …

The Role of Nutrient Availability in Therapeutic Response of Leukemia
… pyrophosphate kinase 1 (TPK1), which converts vitamin B1 (thiamine) into the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), as a metabolic dependency under ASNase treatment. In glutamine-anaplerotic leukemia cells, we found that TPP availability enables asparagine synthesis from extracellular …

Identification and characterization of thiamine biosynthesis, transport, and regulation elements among bacteroides species
Thiamine (vitamin B1) is an essential cofactor for all organisms. Humans primarily acquire thiamine through their diet and thiamine deficiencies have adverse neurological effects. However, the role gut microbes play in modulating thiamine availability is poorly understood. In addition, little is …
