G0M227 · G0M227_LACPE

Function

function

Converts the preformed base xanthine, a product of nucleic acid breakdown, to xanthosine 5'-monophosphate (XMP), so it can be reused for RNA or DNA synthesis.

Catalytic activity

Pathway

Purine metabolism; XMP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; XMP from xanthine: step 1/1.
