3.6.1.72 |
Accepted name: |
DNA-3′-diphospho-5′-guanosine diphosphatase |
Reaction: |
[DNA]-3′-diphospho-5′-guanosine + H2O = [DNA]-3′-phosphate + GMP |
Other name(s): |
aprataxin; DNA-3′pp5′G guanylate hydrolase; APTX (gene name); HNT3 (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
[DNA]-3′-diphospho-5′-guanosine hydrolase (guanosine 5′-phosphate-forming) |
Comments: |
Aprataxin is a DNA-binding protein that catalyses (among other activities) the 3′ decapping of DNA-ppG (formed by EC 6.5.1.8, 3′-phosphate/5′-hydroxy nucleic acid ligase) [1]. The enzyme binds the guanylate group to a histidine residue at its active site, forming a covalent enzyme-nucleotide phosphate intermediate, followed by the hydrolysis of the guanylate from the nucleic acid and its eventual release. The enzyme also possesses the activity of EC 3.6.1.71, adenosine-5′-diphospho-5′-[DNA] diphosphatase, and EC 3.6.1.70, guanosine-5′-diphospho-5′-[DNA] diphosphatase. |
