Function
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleotide monophosphates, releasing inorganic phosphate and the corresponding nucleoside, with AMP being the preferred substrate. Shows a preference for ribonucleotide monophosphates over their equivalent deoxyribose forms. Other substrates include IMP, UMP, GMP, CMP, dAMP, dCMP, dTMP, NAD and NMN.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor)
Disease Association: Calcification of joints and arteries (CALJA) : A condition characterized by adult-onset calcification of the lower extremity arteries, including the iliac, femoral and tibial arteries, and hand and foot capsule joints. Age of onset has been reported as early as the second decade of life, usually involving intense joint pain or calcification in the hands. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
