Uridine 95-102 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 224-238 31420268-3 2019 The pyrimidine salvage enzyme uridine-cytidine kinase 2 (UCK2), a ~29 kDa protein that forms a tetramer in its active state, is necessary for uridine salvage. Uridine 30-37 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 57-61 195585-1 1977 Uridine kinase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the activation (phosphorylation) of uridine and the corresponding chemotherapeutic analogues, is present as two isoenzymes localized exclusively in the cytosol of rapidly growing neoplasms, including the S-37 sarcoma, EL-4 leukaemia, HeLa cells (a human carcinoma) and the Novikoff hepatoma. Uridine 80-87 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 0-14 195585-4 1977 During the development of tumour-cell resistance to 5-fluorouracil or 5-fluorouridine in vivo there was an early differential increase in the activity of a low-affinity (high-Km) uridine kinase isoenzyme, as measured in cell extracts, and a 7-fold increase in the Km values for the uptake of both uridine and 5-fluorouridine into the intact resistant cells. Uridine 78-85 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 179-193 30551402-5 2019 UCK2 is responsible for the phosphorylation of uridine and cytidine to their corresponding monophosphate in a salvage pathway of pyrimidine nucleotides biosynthesis. Uridine 47-54 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 0-4 28955773-1 2017 Uridine-cytidine kinase (UCK), including human UCK2, are a family of enzymes that generally phosphorylate both uridine and cytidine. Uridine 111-118 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 47-51 30304569-1 2019 Uridine-cytidine kinases (encoded by UCK1, UCKL1, and UCK2) catalyze the phosphorylation of uridine and cytidine to uridine monophosphate (UMP) and cytidine monophosphate (CMP). Uridine 92-99 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 54-58 28955773-5 2017 Replacement of His117 in human UCK2, corresponding to residue Tyr93 in ttCK, by Tyr resulted in a loss of uridine phosphorylation activity. Uridine 106-113 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 31-35 27906629-3 2016 The Vmax of purified recombinant UCK2 was 22- and 8-fold higher with uridine and cytidine, respectively, compared to those observed for the purified recombinant UCK1 enzyme. Uridine 69-76 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 33-37 19532987-4 2009 We have investigated the mechanism of human uridine-cytidine kinase 2 (UCK2, EC 2.7.1.48), which catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to the ribose 5"-hydroxyl of cytidine and uridine. Uridine 44-51 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 71-75 27239701-4 2016 Transient and stable overexpression of UCK2 in neuroblastoma cells increased the metabolism of uridine and cytidine as well as the cytotoxicity of 3-deazauridine. Uridine 95-102 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 39-43 27239701-5 2016 Knockdown of endogenous UCK2 as well as overexpression of UCK1 resulted in decreased metabolism of uridine and cytidine and protected the neuroblastoma cells from 3-deazauridine-induced toxicity. Uridine 99-106 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 24-28 20641989-12 2004 Phosphorylation of uridine and cytosine is 15-20 times faster with UCK2 than with UCK1. Uridine 19-26 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 67-71 15735337-2 2005 UCK2 catalyzes the phosphorylation of the natural ribonucleosides cytidine and uridine to cytidine 5"-monophosphate (CMP) and uridine 5"-monophosphate (UMP), respectively, and activates several important frontline antimetabolite drugs. Uridine 79-86 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 0-4 2161304-8 1990 Plasma uridine concentration was significantly higher in 11 hypertensive patients on minoxidil compared with pretreatment values, suggesting that uridine kinase inhibition is of a degree sufficient to increase the circulating pool of uridine. Uridine 7-14 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 146-160 9799561-0 1998 Uridine kinase: altered enzyme with decreased affinities for uridine and CTP. Uridine 61-68 uridine-cytidine kinase 2 Homo sapiens 0-14 9799561-1 1998 Uridine kinase is the rate-limiting enzyme in the salvage pathway for uridine or cytidine of mammalian cells.
