Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase Definition
Human adenine phosphoribosyltransferase protein (179 aa, 19 kDa) is encoded by the human adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) gene. The cytoplasmic protein is primarily involved in an AMP purine salvage reaction that recycles adenine into nucleic acids by the formation of AMP from adenine and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate.
