In enzymology, a hydroxymethylpyrimidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.49) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

ATP + 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine ADP + 4-amino-5-phosphonooxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP and 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine, whereas its two products are ADP and 4-amino-5-phosphonooxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine 5-phosphotransferase. This enzyme is also called hydroxymethylpyrimidine kinase (phosphorylating). This enzyme participates in thiamine metabolism.

A serine/threonine protein kinase is a kinase enzyme, in particular a protein kinase, that phosphorylates the OH group of the amino-acid residues serine or threonine, which have similar side chains. At least 350 of the 500+ human protein kinases are serine/threonine kinases (STK).

Shikimate kinase (EC 2.7.1.71) is an enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of shikimate to form shikimate 3-phosphate. This reaction is the fifth step of the shikimate pathway, which is used by plants and bacteria to synthesize the common precursor of aromatic amino acids and secondary metabolites. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:shikimate 3-phosphotransferase. Other names in common use include shikimate kinase (phosphorylating), and shikimate kinase II.
