1. An engineered pantothenate kinase polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85% sequence to SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein said engineered pantothenate kinase polypeptide comprises an amino acid substitution set corresponding to amino acid positions F15L, V27N, and W283H/L in SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein said engineered pantothenate kinase polypeptide has increased ability to convert ethynyl glyceraldehyde to ethynyl glyceraldehyde phosphate when compared to the wild-type polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
