Description | AMP-deaminase (AMPD) ( ) is a large, well-conserved eukaryotic protein that catalyzes the hydrolytic deamination of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to inosine monophosphate (IMP), and so plays an important role in purine metabolism. In mammalian liver, the reaction catalysed by AMP-deaminase constitutes a rate-limiting step in adenine nucleotide catabolism [ ]. Not all members of the family are active enzymes: YBR284W and YJL070C lack residues for binding the catalytic zinc ion, and YJL070C lacks substrate binding residues. |
