It functions by dephosphorylating nucleoside monophosphates into nucleosides and its activity is important for nucleotide metabolism in cells. NT5C is expressed in various tissues including liver brain and skeletal muscle enabling these tissues to efficiently manage nucleotide balance.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nNT5C plays a role in maintaining cellular nucleotide pools impacting DNA and RNA synthesis. The enzyme is not part of a larger protein complex and primarily functions independently in nucleotide salvage pathways. Its activity influences the availability of nucleosides which are necessary for cellular replication and repair processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nNT5C contributes to purine and pyrimidine metabolism. It is involved in the nucleotide salvage pathways collaborating with other enzymes like adenosine deaminase and cytidine deaminase. These pathways play essential roles in recycling nucleotides and maintaining the nucleoside balance critical for cellular function.\u003cbr\u003e\nNT5C has implications in cancer and neurological diseases. Abnormal activity of NT5C might contribute to nucleotide imbalances observed in certain cancers. Its role in dephosphorylation in the brain links it with neurodegenerative conditions potentially involving proteins like adenosine kinase. Understanding its function may offer insights into therapeutic strategies for these diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845202530473,"sku":"ab266740","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab266740","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
