Genes specifying the thiamin monophosphate phosphatase and adenylated thiazole diphosphatase
steps in fungal and plant thiamin biosynthesis remain unknown, as do genes for thiamin diphosphate
(ThDP) hydrolysis in thiamin metabolism. A distinctive Nudix domain fused to thiamin diphosphokinase
(Tnr3) in Schizosaccharomyces pombe was evaluated as a candidate for these functions....
