1zn8 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
APT_HUMAN Defects in APRT are the cause of adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency (APRTD) [MIM:614723; also known as 2,8-dihydroxyadenine urolithiasis. An enzymatic deficiency that can lead to urolithiasis and renal failure. Patients have 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) urinary stones.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Function
APT_HUMAN Catalyzes a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of AMP, that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis.
