2.4.2.28 | 5'-methylthioadenosine + phosphate |
physiological significance of 5'-methylthioadenosine cleavage is probably related to removal of the thioether which in turn exerts a significant inhibition on methyl transfer reactions |
2.4.2.28 | 5'-methylthioadenosine + phosphate |
the enzyme regulates ornithine decarboxylase by production of downstream metabolites. Tumor suppressor activity of MTAP may be due to its effect on ornithine decarboxylase activity |
2.4.2.28 | adenosine + phosphate |
- |
2.4.2.28 | adenosine + phosphate |
the enzyme can use adenosine with the same efficiency as 5'-deoxy-5'-methylthioadenosine |
2.4.2.28 | guanosine + phosphate |
- |
2.4.2.28 | inosine + phosphate |
- |
2.4.2.28 | more |
enzyme plays a role in purine and polyamine metabolism and in the regulation of transmethylation reactions |
2.4.2.28 | more |
involved in the catabolism of 5'-methylthioadenosine, adenosine, guanosine and inosine |
2.4.2.28 | more |
inverse correlation between enzyme expression and progression of melanocytic tumors, important role of enzyme inactivation in the development of melanomas |
2.4.2.28 | more |
enzyme is involved in the methionine dependent tumor cell growth |
