Short Name | HGPRTase-like |
description | This entryconsists of the hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) and HPRT-like proteins. HPRT catalyses a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of IMP that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis []. HPRT-like proteins may catalyse a purine salvage reaction, the substrate is unknown. |
