Általános leírás

Research area: CELL SIGNALING

The E. coli thymidine phosphorylase shares 40% sequence homology with the human sequence, which is identical to the angiogenic agent platelet-derived endothelial growth factor. The purified E. coli enzyme has been shown to stimulate blood vessel growth in chick chorioallantoic membrane assays.

Alkalmazás

Thymidine phosphorylase has been used:
  • in a study to evaluate biomarkers for advanced breast cancer patients treated with capecitabine-based first-line chemotherapy.
  • in a study to investigate implications for the clinical efficacy of nucleoside analogues.

Biokémiai/fiziológiai hatások

An enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of thymidine to thymine. Thymidine phosphorylase is part of the pyrimidine nucleoside salvage pathway. This pathway allows pyrimidine bases to be recycled for nucleotide biosynthesis, while the pentose 1-phosphates are converted to intermediates of the pentose phosphate shunt and glycolysis.

Thymidine phosphorylase catalyzes the reversible conversion of thymidine to thymine. Thymidine phosphorylase is part of the thymidine salvage pathway and pyrimidine nucleoside salvage pathway. This pathway allows pyrimidine bases to be recycled for nucleotide biosynthesis, while the pentose 1-phosphates are converted to intermediates of the pentose phosphate shunt and glycolysis. The enzyme inhibits apoptosis and induces angiogenesis thereby promoting tumor growth and metastatic process. Moreover, thymidine phosphorylase inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.

Egység definíció

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole each of thymidine and phosphate to thymine and 2-deoxyribose 1-phosphate per min at pH 7.4 at 25°C.

Capecitabine (CAP), a prodrug, needs to be converted to 5-fluorouracil by several key enzymes, including thymidine phosphorylase (TP). To improve the therapeutic index, potentiation of antitumor activity of CAP is required. In this study, we explored whether lidamycin (LDM), an

This enzyme mediates nucleobase-exchange reactions to convert unnatural nucleosides possessing a large functional group such as
