Thiopurine methyltransferase

A pseudogene for this locus is located on chromosome 18q. Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) deficiency is a condition characterized by significantly reduced activity of an enzyme that helps the body process drugs called thiopurines. These drugs, which include 6-thioguanine, 6-mercaptopurine, and azathioprine, inhibit (suppress) the body's immune system. Thiopurine drugs are used to treat some Thiopurine methyl transferase (TPMT) is an enzyme catalysing the methylation of 6-MP, competing with xanthine oxidase (XO) and hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) to determine the amount of 6-MP metabolised to cytotoxic thioguanine nucleotides. Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) is an enzyme that breaks down (metabolizes) a class of drugs called thiopurines.

The discovery and implementation of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) pharmacogenetics has been a success story and has reduced the suffering from

Changes in the TPMT gene cause TPMT deficiency, which is a reduction in the activity of the TPMT enzyme. Without enough of this enzyme, the body cannot "turn off" thiopurine drugs by metabolizing them into inactive compounds. A thiopurine S-methyltransferase that is encoded in the genome of human. Protein Ontology Catalyzes the S-methylation of thiopurine drugs such as 6-mercaptopurine (also called mercaptopurine, 6-MP or its brand name Purinethol) and 6-thioguanine (also called tioguanine or 6-TG) using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as the methyl donor (PMID: 657528 , PMID: 18484748 ). Approximately 0.3% of the population has a profound genetic deficiency of thiopurine methyltransferase, the major route for detoxification of thiopurines used in immunosuppression and oncology.

Human thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of thiopurine drugs, which are widely used in leukemia and inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn´s disease. Due to genetic polymorphisms, approximately 30 protein variants are present in … 2001-04-01 Thiopurine S-Methyltransferase (TPMT) Genotype - Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT; S-adenosyl-L-methionine:thiopurine S-methyltransferase) catalyzes thiopurine S-methylation, an important metabolic pathway for antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs.

Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) is an enzyme that breaks down (metabolizes) a class of drugs called thiopurines. These drugs are used to suppress the immune system and are prescribed to treat various immune-related conditions or blood disorders (e.g., leukemia). Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) is an enzyme that the body uses to break down thiopurine drugs.
