Thymidine kinase NK16

The thymidine kinase NK16 is a mesophilic enzyme of viral origin. The enzyme phosphorylates thymidine, uridine, deoxyuridine, deoxycytidine and deoxyguanosine as well as a number of modified pyrimidine and purine derivatives. ATP or dGTP can act as phosphate donor. The quasi-irreversible transfer of phosphate from the high energy phosphate donor to the nucleoside enables high NMP yields.
