Pantothenate kinase

Contents 1 Function 2 Disease 3 Structural highlights 4 3D structures of pantothenate kinase Function Pantothenate kinase (PanK) phosphorylates pantothenate (vitamin B5) (PAU) to form 4’-phosphopantothenate (PPT) using ATP as phosphate source. This is the first step in coenzyme A biosynthesis[1]. Three types of PanK are known. PanK I found in bacteria PanK II found mostly in eukaryotes PanK III found in bacteria and known as CoaX. Disease Mutations in PanK II cause the autosomal-recessive disorder Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration[2]. Structural highlights Pantothenate binds in a buried pocket at the PanK dimer interface[3].
