TKTL2


Description

The TKTL2 (transketolase like 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 4.

TKTL2 (Transketolase-like protein 2) is an enzyme produced by the TKTL2 gene in humans.

TKTL2 plays a crucial role in the overall transketolase activity and cellular growth of cancer cells. When treated with anti-TKTL1 siRNA, the total transketolase activity significantly drops, leading to a notable decrease in cancer cell proliferation. This enzyme is strongly implicated in the development of cancer.

TKTL2 is also known as -.
