EC 3.6.1.60     
Accepted name: diadenosine hexaphosphate hydrolase (AMP-forming)
Reaction: (1) P1,P6-bis(5′-adenosyl)hexaphosphate + H2O = adenosine 5′-pentaphosphate + AMP
(2) P1,P5-bis(5′-adenosyl)pentaphosphate + H2O = adenosine 5′-tetraphosphate + AMP
Other name(s): hAps1; NUDT11 (gene name); hAps2; NUDT10 (gene name)
Systematic name: P1,P6-bis(5′-adenosyl)hexaphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (AMP-forming)
Comments: A divalent cation is essential for activity. Mn2+ (2–6 mM) is most effective. The enzyme controls intracellular levels of P1,P5-bis(5′-adenosyl)pentaphosphate and P1,P6-bis(5′-adenosyl)hexaphosphate. Weak activity with P1,P4-bis(5′-adenosyl)tetraphosphate. Marked preference for adenine over guanine nucleotides.
