Message definition (Thiamine pyrophosphate)
Thiamine pyrophosphate is synthesized in the [[cytosol]] and is required in the cytosol for the activity of transketolase and in the mitochondria for the activity of pyruvate-, oxoglutarate- and branched chain keto acid dehydrogenases. To date, the yeast ThPP carrier (Tpc1p) the human Tpc and the ''[[Drosophila melanogaster]]'' have been identified as being responsible for the mitochondrial transport of ThPP and ThMP. It was first discovered as an [[essential nutrient]] ([[vitamin]]) in humans through its link with the [[peripheral nervous system]] [[disease]] [[beriberi]], which results from a deficiency of thiamine in the [[Diet (nutrition)|diet]].
