Thymidylate kinase (DTYMK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of dTMP to form dTDP in the dTTP synthesis pathway for DNA synthesis. DTYMK is essential for DNA synthesis and is an important intermediate enzyme in the pathway of many pyrimidine analog drugs, including 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), the chemotherapeutic drug of choice for several solid tumors. The human DTYMK gene was isolated via functional complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle mutant, cdc8. DTYMK mRNA levels and enzyme activities are regulated at the level of cell cycle and cell growth pathways.

dTMP Kinase Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of dTMP Kinase protein.

Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the investigator. Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB: 1:500-1:2000, IHC-p: 1:100-1:300, ELISA: 1:20000. Not yet tested in other applications.
