Descriptions

An enzyme catalyzing the formation of AMP from adenine and phosphoribosylpyrophosphate. It can act as a salvage enzyme for recycling of adenine into nucleic acids. EC 2.4.2.7. Source: National Library of Medicine, MeSH 2006

Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the APRT gene.

The protein encoded by this gene, APRTase is an enzyme involved in the purine nucleotide salvage pathway. It functions as a catalyst in the reaction between adenine and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP) to form AMP. APRTase is labeled as EC 2.4.2.7.

APRT is functionally related to hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT). Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License. See http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ for details. Source: Wikipedia, Wikipedia
