EC number
2.4.2.57
Accepted name
AMP phosphorylase
Reaction
(1) AMP + phosphate = adenine + α-D-ribose 1,5-bisphosphate;;(2) CMP + phosphate = cytosine + α-D-ribose 1,5-bisphosphate;;(3) UMP + phosphate = uracil + α-D-ribose 1,5-bisphosphate
Other name(s)
AMPpase, nucleoside monophosphate phosphorylase, deoA (gene name)
Systematic name
AMP:phosphate α-D-ribosyl 5′-phosphate-transferase
Comment
The enzyme from archaea is involved in AMP metabolism and CO2 fixation through type III RubisCO enzymes. The activity with CMP and UMP requires activation by cAMP [2].
