Transketolase
Transketolase (TK, EC 2.2.1.1) is a thiamine diphosphate-dependent cytoplasmic enzyme that controls the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway and links it to glycolysis; discovered in 1953, it supplies ribose units for nucleoside biosynthesis.
Transketolase deficiency
Transketolase deficiency (TKT deficiency) is a rare autosomal recessive pentose phosphate pathway disorder caused by TKT variants on 3p21.1, causing short stature, developmental delay, congenital heart defects, and elevated polyols.

Translation
Translation is the rendering of a written text from one language into another, a practice attested since ancient Mesopotamia and now studied by translation studies.
Translation (biology)
Translation (biology): ribosomal protein synthesis from mRNA using the genetic code; stages initiation, elongation, termination; Nirenberg-Khorana 1968 Nobel code work; major antibiotic target.
Translation (geometry)
A translation in geometry is a transformation that slides every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction, without rotating or resizing it.
Translation elongation factor IF5A-like
Translation elongation factor IF5A-like: the eIF5A protein family (eIF5A1, eIF5A2, archaeal aIF5A, bacterial EF-P), small conserved translation factors carrying the unique hypusine modification, acting mainly in elongation and termination, essential for viability and implicated in cancer.
Translation elongation factor P-like, YeiP
YeiP, renamed EfpL, is an E. coli EF-P paralog (29% identity) that rescues ribosomes stalled at proline motifs, senses metabolic state via lysine acylation, and co-occurs with EF-P in Proteobacteria.
