Transketolase (TK or TKT), a member of the Transketolase family, is a multifunctional protein that plays a role in diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer's disease and Wernicke-Korsakoffs syndrome, a latent genetic neurological disorder. Transketolase is also important for the prevention of hyperglycemia-induced vascular damage. Transketolase is a crucial protein in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), where it catalyzes several reactions. In combination with Transaldolase, Transketolase functions as a link between glycolysis and the non-oxidative part of the PPP, allowing the cell to adapt to varying metabolic conditions in response to environmental changes. Transketolase activity is detected in small intestine epithelia, liver parenchyma, tongue, cornea and trachea. It is also expressed in the proximal tubules of kidney and in ganglion cells in medulla of the adrenal gland.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a thiamine-dependent enzyme which plays a role in the channeling of excess sugar phosphates to glycolysis in the pentose phosphate pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Uniprot Description

TKT: Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. Homodimer. Belongs to the transketolase family.

Product Notes

The TKT tkt (Catalog #AAA3011503) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The TKT Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's TKT can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TKT tkt for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TKT, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
