MTAP cdna clone
MTAP cDNA Clone
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an enzyme that plays a major role in polyamine metabolism and is important for the salvage of both adenine and methionine. The encoded enzyme is deficient in many cancers because this gene and the tumor suppressor p16 gene are co-deleted. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene, but their full-length natures remain unknown. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
MTAP: 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. Homotrimer. Ubiquitously expressed. Inhibited by 5'-methylthiotubercin and 5'- chloroformycin. Belongs to the PNP/MTAP phosphorylase family. MTAP subfamily.
Protein type: Transferase; Phosphorylase; EC 2.4.2.28; Amino Acid Metabolism - cysteine and methionine
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 9p21
Cellular Component: cytoplasm; cytosol
Molecular Function: phosphorylase activity; protein binding; S-methyl-5-thioadenosine phosphorylase activity
Biological Process: methionine salvage; nicotinamide riboside catabolic process; nucleobase, nucleoside, nucleotide and nucleic acid metabolic process; purine salvage

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MTAP, cDNA Clone" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
