  1. 11. Cloning, Expression and Purification of a Mutant Tomato Thymidine Kinase 1 for Crystallography

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Mohamad Nesrini; [2015]
    Keywords : protein expression; protein engineering; Azidothymidine; thymidine kinase; deoxyribonucleoside kinases; nucleosides; nucleoside analog; suicide gene therapy; tillämpad biokemi; applied biochemistry; BEVS.; Technology and Engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Thymidine kinase 1 from tomato (ToTK1) is a newly discovered deoxyribonucleoside kinase (dNK) that has been subject to study due to its in vitro and in vivo properties making it an interesting suicide gene candidate for the treatment of brain tumors. The ToTK1 phosphorylates the nucleoside analogue 3-azido-2,3-dideoxythymidine (azidothymidine, AZT) equally well as its natural substrate thymidine (dThd). READ MORE
