IntEnz Enzyme Nomenclature
EC 3.6.1.61

Names

Accepted name:
diadenosine hexaphosphate hydrolase (ATP-forming)
Other name:
Ndx1
Systematic name:
P1,P6-bis(5'-adenosyl)hexaphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (ATP-forming)

Reactions

Cofactor

Comments:

The enzyme requires the presence of the divalent cations (Mn2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, and Co2+). It hydrolyses P1,P4-bis(5-guanosyl) tetraphosphate very slowly [cf. EC 3.6.1.17, bis(5-nucleosyl)-tetraphosphatase (asymmetrical)].
