Red blood cell transketolase activity is reduced in deficiency of thiamine (vitamin B 1), and may be used in the diagnosis of Wernicke encephalopathy and other B 1-deficiency syndromes if the diagnosis is in doubt. [11]
In what is essentially the reverse of step two, the electrons push back in the opposite direction forming a new bond between the substrate carbon and another atom. (In the case of the decarboxylases, this creates a new carbon-hydrogen bond. In the case of transketolase, this attacks a new substrate molecule to form a new carbon-carbon bond.)

It functions as an antimicrobial agent by splitting the peptidoglycan component of bacterial cell walls, which then leads to cell death. Clinical Significance: Toxic levels of blood are caused by the excessive production of lysozyme's by cancer cells. Lysozyme's have also been associated with Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in newborns and is ...
In enzymology, a formaldehyde transketolase (EC 2.2.1.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction D-xylulose 5-phosphate + formaldehyde ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + glycerone
Dehydrogenase E1 and transketolase domain containing 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DHTKD1 gene. This gene encodes a component of a mitochondrial 2-oxoglutarate-dehydrogenase-complex-like protein involved in the degradation pathways of several amino acids , including lysine .
Transketolase-like-1 (TKTL1) is a gene closely related to the transketolase gene (TKT). It emerged in mammals during the course of evolution and, according to the latest research findings, is considered one of the key genes that distinguishes modern humans ( Homo sapiens ) from Neanderthals .
It is formed by transketolase and acted upon by transaldolase. Sedoheptulokinase is an enzyme that uses sedoheptulose and ATP to produce ADP and sedoheptulose 7-phosphate. Sedoheptulose-bisphosphatase is an enzyme that uses sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate and H 2 O to produce sedoheptulose 7-phosphate and phosphate.
