The human genome encodes two proteins closely related to transketolase (TKT), transketolase-like protein 1 and 2 (TKTL1 and TKTL2). TKTL1 shares 61% amino acid sequence identity with TKT. More and more evidence suggests a role for TKTL1 in proliferation or cell cycle regulation. Indeed, TKTL1 is ove...
