Derivation

As mentioned above, 1HTI comes from Homo sapiens; the functional annotation is given at the end of this page. The followings are some homologies according to the BLAST results(http://www.uniprot.org/blast/). The configurations are:

<1>Matrix: blosum62 <2>Threshold: 10 <3>Filtered: false <4>Gapped: true <5>Maximum number of hits reported: 250 <6>Database: uniprotkb (Protein) generated for BLAST on Nov 2, 2010

What's New~

"Triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) is a perfectly evolved enzyme...Researchers continue to use TIM as a study object for their research, both for computational enzyme mechanism studies as well as for experimental studies."

--R. K. Wierenga, E. G. Kapetaniou and R. Venkatesan, "Triosephosphate isomerase: a highly evolved biocatalyst", Cell Mol Life Sci. 2010 Dec

"In the present study, we theoretically assessed the effects of 20 point mutations detected previously in a region of the triose-phosphate isomerase gene (tpi) of the protozoan Giardia duodenalis on the three-dimensional structure of the ‘wild-type’ protein (TPI)...the findings provide support for the “neutral theory”, which contends that evolution at the molecular level is not solely shaped by “Darwinian selection but also by random drift of selectively neutral or nearly neutral mutants”."

--Nolan MJ, Hofmann A, Jex AR, Gasser RB, "A theoretical study to establish the relationship between the three-dimensional structure of triose-phosphate isomerase of Giardia duodenalis and point mutations in the respective gene", Mol Cell Probes. 2010 Oct
