pubmed:abstractText |
The activity of the pyrimidine salvage pathway enzyme thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) is tightly cell cycle regulated and has been investigated as a prognostic indicator of cancer in a variety of tissues. However, using the in vitro assay of TK1 to rank order a series of unique tumor samples by their TK1 activity can be problematic due to the complex nature of TK1 enzyme substrate kinetics. We present a refined TK1 in vitro assay and method of analysis which address these problems.
