Pathway of thiamine pyrophosphate synthesis in Micrococcus denitrificans [PDF]
The pathway of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) biosynthesis, which is formed either from exogeneously added thiamine or from the pyrimidine and thiazole moieties of thiamine, in Micrococcus denitrificans was investigated. The following indirect evidence shows that thiamine pyrophosphokinase (EC 2.7.6.2) catalyzes the synthesis of TPP from thiamine: (i ...

Perturbations in histidine biosynthesis uncover robustness in the metabolic network of Salmonella enterica. [PDF]
Phosphoribosylamine (PRA) is an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway that is common to thiamine and purines. Glutamine phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP) amidotransferase is the product of the purF gene in Salmonella enterica and catalyzes the ...

Pathway Editing Targets for Thiamine Biofortification in Rice Grains
Thiamine deficiency is common in populations consuming polished rice as a major source of carbohydrates. Thiamine is required to synthesize thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), an essential cofactor of enzymes of central metabolism. Its biosynthesis pathway has

Biosynthetic Pathway of Thiamine Pyrophosphate: a Special Reference to the Thiamine Monophosphate-Requiring Mutant and the Thiamine Pyrophosphate-Requiring Mutant of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Two types of mutants of Escherichia coli were isolated, one of which (mutant 70-23-107) responded to thiamine pyrophosphate, and the other (mutant 70-23-102) to thiamine monophosphate and thiamine pyrophosphate. They were produced by further mutation of a thiamine auxotroph of E.
