bis(5'-adenosyl) tetraphosphatase
diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphatase
diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolase
diadenosine tetraphosphate hydrolase
diadenosinetetraphosphatase (symmetrical)

1-P,4-P-bis(5'-nucleosyl)-tetraphosphate nucleosidebisphosphohydrolase
Systematic name:
P1,P4-bis(5'-nucleosyl)-tetraphosphate nucleosidebisphosphohydrolase

Reaction

Comments:

Also acts on bis(5'-guanosyl) tetraphosphate and bis(5'-adenosyl) pentaphosphate and, more slowly, on some other polyphosphates, forming a nucleoside bisphosphate as one product in all cases [cf. EC 3.6.1.17 bis(5'-nucleosyl)-tetraphosphatase (asymmetrical)].
