ptps-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Expressed in hypodermis and neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in BH4-deficient hyperphenylalaninemia A and phenylketonuria. Is an ortholog of human PTS (6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase).
