Thiamine diphosphokinase (EC 2.7.6.2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The enzyme characterised from rat liver and yeast converts thiamine to thiamine pyrophosphate by transferring a pyrophosphate group from the cofactor, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is converted to adenosine monophosphate (AMP).[1][2][3]
This enzyme is a transferase, specifically one transferring two phosphorus-containing groups (diphosphotransferases). The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:thiamine diphosphotransferase. Other names in common use include thiamin kinase, thiamine pyrophosphokinase, ATP:thiamin pyrophosphotransferase, thiamin pyrophosphokinase, thiamin pyrophosphotransferase, thiaminokinase, thiamin:ATP pyrophosphotransferase, and TPTase.[4]
