Scope note

  • An enzyme that is found in mitochondria and in the soluble cytoplasm of cells. It catalyzes reversible reactions of a nucleoside triphosphate, e.g., ATP, with a nucleoside diphosphate, e.g., UDP, to form ADP and UTP. Many nucleoside diphosphates can act as acceptor, while many ribo- and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates can act as donor. EC 2.7.4.6.

History note

  • 94; was NUCLEOSIDE DIPHOSPHATE KINASES 1977-93 (see under PHOSPHOTRANSFERASES, ATP 1977-90)
