Background Information
AK1(Adenylate kinase isoenzyme 1), also known as ATP-AMP transphosphorylase 1. It is located in cytoplasm. This protein is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, brain and erythrocytes. Certain mutations in this gene resulting in a functionally inadequate enzyme are associated with a rare genetic disorder causing nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. Catalyzes the reversible transfer of the terminal phosphate group between ATP and AMP 1. Exhibits nucleoside diphosphate kinase activity, catalyzing the production of ATP, CTP, GTP, UTP, dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP from the corresponding diphosphate substrates with either ATP or GTP as phosphate donor 2. Also catalyzes at a very low rate the synthesis of thiamine triphosphate (ThTP) from thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) and ADP. The molecular weight of AK1 is 22 kDa.
