'''Nucleoside triphosphatase''' or '''nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase''' (NTPase) is responsible for degradation of nucleotides to their monophosphate form. NTPase is found in mammals and in pathogenic microbes. In mammals NTPase hs a crucial role in regulation of purinergic signalling by hydrolysis of extracellular nucleotides. The function of NTPase in pathogens is still unknown<ref>PMID:24115522</ref>. | '''Nucleoside triphosphatase''' or '''nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase''' (NTPase) is responsible for degradation of nucleotides to their monophosphate form.

The 3D structure of the complex between NTPase 2 and the ATP analog AMPPNP shows the NTPase structure composed of two domains. Domain I contains the N-terminal and C-terminal and domain II the core residues. The structure contains 7 Cys-Cys bonds one of which located between domain I and II and reaching the diametrically positioned monomer was found by mutational analysis to be responsible for activation. The ATP analog - AMPPNP - is located in a cleft and forms interactions with domain I and domain II<ref>PMID:22130673</ref>. |
