Four Deoxynucleoside Kinase Activities from Drosophila melanogaster Are Contained within a Single Monomeric Enzyme, a New Multifunctional Deoxynucleoside Kinase

1 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

In mammalian cells, there are three pyrimidine nucleoside salvage enzymes with the capacity to phosphorylate all four deoxynucleosides, the two thymidine kinase isoenzymes, TK1 and TK2, and the deoxycytidine kinase, dCK. TK1 is cell cycle-regulated; TK2 is expressed constitutively and can phosphorylate deoxycytidine to the same extent as thymidine. dCK phosphorylates deoxycytidine, deoxyadenosine, and...
