Protein Description
Guanosine monophosphate reductase 2
Background
Guanosine monophosphate reductase (GMPR) Catalyzes the irreversible NADPH-dependent deamination of GMP to IMP. It functions in the conversion of nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide derivatives of G to A nucleotides, and in maintaining the intracellular balance of A and G nucleotides. Plays a role in modulating cellular differentiation.
Ligand Chemical Component
guanosine-5'-monophosphate; sulfate ion
