Description

adenine phosphoribosyl transferase

Gene Summary

Enables adenine binding activity and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase activity. Involved in AMP salvage; GMP salvage; and IMP salvage. Acts upstream of or within adenine metabolic process; grooming behavior; and purine ribonucleoside salvage. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cranium; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency. Orthologous to human APRT (adenine phosphoribosyltransferase).
