Description
Nucleoside diphosphate kinase (Nucleoside 5′-diphosphate kinase) belongs to the family of structurally and functionally conserved NDPK (Nucleotide diphosphate kinase) enzymes. Nucleoside diphosphate kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of γ-phosphates between nucleoside di-(NDP) and triphosphates (NTP) through ping-pong bi-bi reaction kinetics. Nucleoside diphosphate kinase is the essential housekeeping proteins that produces CTP (cytidine triphosphate) for lipid syntheses, UTP (Uridine triphosphate) for polysaccharide syntheses, and GTP (guanosine triphosphate) for protein syntheses, signal transduction, and microtubules polymerization[1]
