Thymidylate synthase

Thymidylate synthase is a homodimer composed of two 30 kDa subunits, which catalyze the methylation of deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) to deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), an essential step in the formation of thymine nucleotides. Thymidylate synthase is an intracellular enzyme that provides the sole de novo source of thymidylate, making it a required enzyme in DNA biosynthesis with activity highest in proliferating cells. Being the exclusive source of dTMP, investigators have concluded that TS is also an important target for anticancer agents such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). 5-FU acts as a TS inhibitor and is active against solid tumors such as colon, breast, head, and neck.
