Background
This gene encodes a member of the adenylosuccinate synthase family of proteins. The encoded muscle-specific enzyme plays a role in the purine nucleotide cycle by catalyzing the first step in the conversion of inosine monophosphate (IMP) to adenosine monophosphate (AMP). Mutations in this gene may cause adolescent onset distal myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016],
Function
catalytic activity:GTP + IMP + L-aspartate = GDP + phosphate + N(6)-(1,2-dicarboxyethyl)-AMP.,cofactor:Binds 1 magnesium ion per subunit.,function:Plays an important role in the de novo pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis.,pathway:Purine metabolism; AMP biosynthesis via de novo pathway; AMP from IMP: step 1/2.,similarity:Belongs to the adenylosuccinate synthetase family.,subunit:Homodimer.,tissue specificity:Predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and heart, as well as in several hematopoietic cell lines and solid tumors.,
