Gene Name PTS
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase activity
Specific Function Involved in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin, an essential cofactor of aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. Catalyzes the transformation of 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate into 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin.
Pathways
  • Dopa-responsive dystonia
  • Folate biosynthesis
  • Hyperphenylalaniemia due to guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase deficiency
  • Hyperphenylalaninemia due to 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency (ptps)
  • Hyperphenylalaninemia due to dhpr-deficiency
  • Pterine Biosynthesis
  • Segawa syndrome
  • Sepiapterin reductase deficiency
  • tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis
