EC 3.1.3.100 Details
EC number
3.1.3.100
Accepted name
thiamine phosphate phosphatase
Reaction
thiamine phosphate + H2O = thiamine + phosphate
Systematic name
thiamine phosphate phosphohydrolase
Comment
The enzyme participates in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway in eukaryotes and a few prokaryotes. These organisms lack EC 2.7.4.16, thiamine-phosphate kinase, and need to convert thiamine phosphate to thiamine diphosphate, the active form of the vitamin, by first removing the phosphate group, followed by diphosphorylation by EC 2.7.6.2, thiamine diphosphokinase.
