Adenosine kinase
FunctionAdenosine kinase (AdK) catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from ATP to adenosine to produce AMP. AMP-PCP is a non-hydrolyzable ATP analog. 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. |
