General Information of Binding Target of SBP (BTS) (ID: ST00246)
BTS Name
Thymidylate synthase
Synonyms
TS; TSase; EC 2.1.1.45
BTS Type
Protein
Family
Thymidylate synthase family;
Bacterial-type ThyA subfamily
Gene Name
thyA
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Function
Catalyzes the reductive methylation of 2'-deoxyuridine-5'-monophosphate (dUMP) to 2'-deoxythymidine-5'-monophosphate (dTMP) while utilizing 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (mTHF) as the methyl donor and reductant in the reaction, yielding dihydrofolate (DHF) as a by-product This enzymatic reaction provides an intracellular de novo source of dTMP, an essential precursor for DNA biosynthesis. This protein also binds to its mRNA thus repressing its own translation
