[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MTAP_HUMAN MTAP_HUMAN]] Catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine (MTA) to adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate. Involved in the breakdown of MTA, a major by-product of polyamine biosynthesis. Responsible for the first step in the methionine salvage pathway after MTA has been generated from S-adenosylmethionine. Has broad substrate specificity with 6-aminopurine nucleosides as preferred substrates.<ref>PMID:3091600</ref> | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MTAP_HUMAN MTAP_HUMAN]] Catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine (MTA) to adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate.
