Identification
NameUridylate kinase
Synonyms
  • UK
  • Uridine monophosphate kinase
  • UMP kinase
Gene NameURA6
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in ATP binding
Specific FunctionFurnishes the cell with pyrimidines. Accepts UMP, and dUMP as phosphate acceptors with high activity; to a lesser extent, it can also use IMP, GMP, dGMP, 5-iodo-dUMP, XMP, and dTMP as substrates. ATP and dATP are the best phosphate donors; can use GTP, dGTP, dCTP, and dTTP to some degree (30-50%)
