Protein Name:
S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine phosphorylase
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9V813 (Q9V813)
Gene Name:
Mtap
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine (MTA) to adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate. Involved in the breakdown of MTA, a major by-product of polyamine biosynthesis. Responsible for the first step in the methionine salvage pathway after MTA has been generated from S-adenosylmethionine. Has broad substrate specificity with 6-aminopurine nucleosides as preferred substrates
