SYNONYMS
Diphosphoinositol polyphosphate phosphohydrolase 3-alpha, DIPP-3-alpha, DIPP3-alpha, hDIPP3alpha, Diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P6-hexaphosphate hydrolase 3-alpha, Nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X motif 10, Nudix motif 10, hAps2, NUDT10, APS2, DIPP3A.
INTRODUCTION
NUDT10 belongs to the Nudix hydrolase family of pyrophosphatases. Nudix hydrolases contain a characteristic Nudix domain and are responsible for catalyzing the hydrolysis of nucleoside diphosphate derivatives. NUDT10 functions as a manganese-dependent polyphosphate phosphohydrolase with an optimum pH of 8.5. NUDT10 protein specifically metabolizes diadendosine-polyphosphates and, to a lesser extent, diphosphoinositol polyphosphates.
DESCRIPTION
NUDT10 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 172 amino acids (1-164 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 19.5kDa.
NUDT10 is fused to an 8 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
