Metabolite Identification
Common NameUridine triphosphate
DescriptionUridine triphosphate, also known as 5'-UTP or H4UTP, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrimidine ribonucleoside triphosphates. These are pyrimidine ribobucleotides with triphosphate group linked to the ribose moiety. Uridine triphosphate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Uridine triphosphate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.

Enzymes

General function:
Nucleotide transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Major role in the synthesis of nucleoside triphosphates other than ATP. The ATP gamma phosphate is transferred to the NDP beta phosphate via a ping-pong mechanism, using a phosphorylated active-site intermediate (By similarity).
Gene Name:
NME7
Uniprot ID:

Molecular weight:

Reactions
Uridine triphosphate + ADP → Uridine 5'-diphosphate + Adenosine triphosphatedetails
General function:
Nucleotide transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Major role in the synthesis of nucleoside triphosphates other than ATP. The ATP gamma phosphate is transferred to the NDP beta phosphate via a ping-pong mechanism, using a phosphorylated active-site intermediate (By similarity). Negatively regulates Rho activity by interacting with AKAP13/LBC. Acts as a transcriptional activator of the MYC gene; binds DNA non-specifically. Binds to both single-stranded guanine- and cytosine-rich strands within the nuclease hypersensitive element (NHE) III(1) region of the MYC gene promoter. Does not bind to duplex NHE III(1). Has G-quadruplex (G4) DNA-binding activity, which is independent of its nucleotide-binding and kinase activity. Binds both folded and unfolded G4 with similar low nanomolar affinities. Stabilizes folded G4s regardless of whether they are prefolded or not (By similarity). Exhibits histidine protein kinase activity (PubMed:12486123).

NME2
Uniprot ID:
Q3T0Q4
Molecular weight:
17316.0
Reactions
Adenosine triphosphate + Uridine 5'-diphosphate → ADP + Uridine triphosphatedetails
General function:
Nucleotide transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Pyrophosphatase that hydrolyzes the non-canonical purine nucleotides inosine triphosphate (ITP), deoxyinosine triphosphate (dITP) as well as 2'-deoxy-N-6-hydroxylaminopurine triposphate (dHAPTP) and xanthosine 5'-triphosphate (XTP) to their respective monophosphate derivatives. The enzyme does not distinguish between the deoxy- and ribose forms. Probably excludes non-canonical purines from RNA and DNA precursor pools, thus preventing their incorporation into RNA and DNA and avoiding chromosomal lesions.
