Nucleotidase

id: nucleotidase-274-5740577
title: Nucleotidase
text: A nucleotidase is a hydrolytic enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of a nucleotide into a nucleoside and a phosphate. For example, it converts adenosine monophosphate to adenosine, and guanosine monophosphate to guanosine. Nucleotidases have an important function in digestion in that they break down consumed nucleic acids. They can be divided into two categories, based upon the end that is hydrolyzed: EC 3.1.3.5: 5'-nucleotidase - NT5C, NT5C1A, NT5C1B, NT5C2, NT5C3 EC 3.1.3.6: 3'-nucleotidase -
