CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the transfer of the gamma-phospho group of ATP to
CC thymidine to generate dTMP in the salvage pathway of pyrimidine
CC synthesis. The dTMP serves as a substrate for DNA polymerase during
CC viral DNA replication. Allows the virus to be reactivated and to grow
CC in non-proliferative cells lacking a high concentration of
CC phosphorylated nucleic acid precursors. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_04029}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=ATP + thymidine = ADP + dTMP + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:19129,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:17748, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:63528, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=2.7.1.21;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04029};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04029}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Phosphorylates and thereby activates certain drugs like
CC acyclovir (ACV), valacyclovir, and famciclovir to a toxic form, that
CC leads to successful suppression of the infection, while the uninfected
CC cell does not have this ability because it lacks TK. Mutations in
CC thymidine kinase may induce HSV resistance to antiviral therapies in
CC immunocompromised patients. The most frequently observed resistant
CC strains are unable to express TK and are avirulent in animal models of
CC disease. Resistance may be acquired less frequently by selecting
CC variants which no longer recognize ACV or ACV triphosphate as
CC substrates but which retain normal functions (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the herpesviridae thymidine kinase family.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04029}.
