Nucleotide diphosphatase
Definition:
EC Tree > 3 Hydrolases > 3.6 Acting on acid anhydrides > 3.6.1 In phosphorus-containing anhydrides > 3.6.1.9 nucleotide diphosphatase
Nucleotide diphosphatase is a Nudix hydrolase found in viruses and cellular organisms that preferentially hydrolyzes ATP but also GTP, CTP, TTP and UTP to the corresponding monophosphates, and in vitro also acts on ADP, NAD+, NADP+, FAD and CoA. It hydrolyzes a nucleoside triphosphate into a nucleotide and diphosphate. In cells it sanitizes NTPs. It features a Nudix fold.
