FunctionAdenosine kinase (AdK) catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from ATP to adenosine to produce AMP. AMP-PCP is a non-hydrolyzable ATP analog.[1] DiseaseAdK deficiency causes hypermethioninemia. Overexpression of AdK in the brain leads to decrease of adenosine and is believed as the main cause of epilepsy. Structural highlightsAdK consists of a . The is formed along the edge of the β sheet in the large domain. |
