TPI1 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 269 amino acids (1-249a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 28.8kDa.TPI1 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
TPI1 is one of the triosephosphate isomerase family. TPI1 catalyzes the isomerization of glyceraldehydes 3-phosphate (G3P) and dihydroxy-acetone phosphate (DHAP) in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Mutations in TPI1 causes triosephosphate isomerase deficiency (TPI deficiency). TPI deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder which is the most severe clinical disorder of glycolysis and is related to neonatal jaundice, chronic hemolytic anemia, progressive neuromuscular dysfunction, cardiomyopathy and increased susceptibility to infection.
