This family includes YjbQ from Escherichia coli, its orthologue from Pyrococcus furiosus and similar sequences. These proteins have been shown to have sufficient thiamine phosphate synthase activity to complement thiE mutants. However, it is presumed that this is a secondary activity, and the primary function of the YjbQ family enzyme remains unknown [1, 2].
