Pantetheine kinase (EC 2.7.1.34) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The enzyme converts pantetheine to phosphopantetheine by transferring a phosphate group from the cofactor, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This is part of the biosynthetic pathway to coenzyme A.[1][2]
This enzyme is a transferases, specifically one transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:pantetheine 4'-phosphotransferase. It is also called pantetheine kinase (phosphorylating).[3]
