EC 3.6.1.73 Details
EC number
3.6.1.73
Accepted name
inosine/xanthosine triphosphatase
Reaction
(1) inosine 5′-triphosphate + H2O = inosine 5′-diphosphate + phosphate;;(2) xanthosine 5′-triphosphate + H2O = xanthosine 5′-diphosphate + phosphate
Other name(s)
yjjX (gene name)
Systematic name
inosine/xanthosine 5′-triphosphate phosphohydrolase
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Escherichia coli, preferentially hydrolyses inosine triphosphate and xanthosine triphosphate, which are formed by oxidative deamination damage. By hydrolysing these damaged nucleotides, the enzyme prevents their incorporation into RNA.
