Thymidine monophosphate (tmp), also known as thymidylic acid (conjugate base thymidylate), deoxythymidine monophosphate (dtmp), or deoxythymidylic acid (conjugate base deoxythymidylate), is a nucleotide that is used as a monomer in dna.it is an ester of phosphoric acid with the nucleoside thymidine. The product of the tk1 reaction, dtmp, is ultimately converted to dttp through the actions of thymidylate kinase and then nucleotide diphosphate kinases. It has a role as a fundamental metabolite.
The concentration of dtmp in the cytosol is extremely low compared with those of dttp and dtdp , and an import of the monophosphate into mitochondria therefore requires a highly efficient carrier.
A nucleoside is a molecule composed of a pentose sugar bonded to nitrogen containing heterocyclic base. Nucleotides consist of three parts: The essential character of dtmp synthesis has stimulated interest in the identification and development of drugs that specifically block the biochemical steps involved in thymine nucleotide formation. It has a role as a fundamental metabolite.
