Structural highlights
FunctionXAPA_ECOLI The purine nucleoside phosphorylases catalyze the phosphorolytic breakdown of the N-glycosidic bond in the beta-(deoxy)ribonucleoside molecules, with the formation of the corresponding free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate. This protein can degrade all purine nucleosides including xanthosine, inosine and guanosine, but cannot cleave adenosine, deoxyadenosine or hypoxanthine arabinoside. Has a preference for the neutral over the monoanionic form of xanthosine.[1] [2] [3] [4] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
