APRT
gene geneOn this page
Summary
APRT (adenine phosphoribosyltransferase, HGNC:626) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q24.3, encoding Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (P07741). Catalyzes a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of AMP, that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis.
Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family. A conserved feature of this gene is the distribution of CpG dinucleotides. This enzyme catalyzes the formation of AMP and inorganic pyrophosphate from adenine and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP). It also produces adenine as a by-product of the polyamine biosynthesis pathway. A homozygous deficiency in this enzyme causes 2,8-dihydroxyadenine urolithiasis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
