    • Target

    • Function

      Catalyzes the S-methylation of thiopurine drugs such as 6-mercaptopurine.

    • Involvement in disease

      Defects in TPMT are the cause of thiopurine S-methyltransferase deficiency (TPMT deficiency) [MIM:610460]. TPMT is an enzyme involved in the normal metabolic inactivation of thiopurine drugs. These drugs are generally used as immunosupressants or cytotoxic drugs and are prescribed for a variety of clinical conditions including leukemia, autoimmune disease and organ transplantation. Patients with intermediate or no TPMT activity are at risk of toxicity after receiving standard doses of thiopurine drugs and it is shown that inter-individual differences in response to these drugs are largely determined by genetic variation at the TPMT locus.

    • Sequence similarities

      Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. TPMT family.

      Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab166909 observed at 28 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.

      ab166909 was shown to recognize TPMT in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in TPMT knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and TPMT knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab166909 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at  1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
