| Description: | Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP protein plays a crucial role in cellular processes by catalyzing the phosphorolytic breakdown of beta-(deoxy)ribonucleosides, preferring 6-oxopurine nucleosides like inosine and guanosine. This enzymatic activity results in the formation of free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate, highlighting the protein's significance in regulated nucleoside degradation. Insights into its role include maintaining cellular purine homeostasis and contributing to overall nucleotide metabolism dynamics. Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP protein, expressed by E. coli, with C-10*His labeled tag. The total length of Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP Protein, Human (His) is 289 a.a., with molecular weight of ~33.5 kDa. |
