Nucleoside triphosphatase
FunctionNucleoside triphosphatase or nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase (NTPase) is responsible for degradation of nucleotides to their monophosphate form. NTPase is found in mammals and in pathogenic microbes. In mammals NTPase hs a crucial role in regulation of purinergic signalling by hydrolysis of extracellular nucleotides. The function of NTPase in pathogens is still unknown[1]. DiseaseRelevanceStructural highlights |
