AMP-polyphosphate phosphotransferase

Definition:

EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.4 Phosphotransferases with a phosphate group as acceptor > 2.7.4.33 AMP-polyphosphate phosphotransferase
AMP-polyphosphate phosphotransferase is the Acinetobacter/Pseudomonas polyphosphate-driven NMP kinase. It transfers a phosphate from polyphosphate onto AMP (best), GMP, dAMP, dGMP, IMP and XMP, releasing the corresponding NDP and (phosphate)n-1; the reverse reaction was not detected. Expected in Bacteria and Eukaryota.
