CommentThis HMM represents phosphomethylpyrimidine kinase, the ThiD protein of thiamine biosynthesis. The protein is commonly observed within operons containing other thiamine biosynthesis genes. Numerous examples are fusion proteins with other thiamine-biosynthetic domains. Saccaromyces has three recent paralogs, two of which are isofunctional and score above the trusted cutoff. The third shows a longer branch length in a phylogenetic tree and scores below the trusted cutoff, as do putative second copies in a number of species.
