Inosine monophosphate synthase

Mammalian protein found in Homo sapiens


Bifunctional purine biosynthesis protein PURH is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATIC gene.[5][6][7]

Quick Facts ATIC, Available structures ...

ATIC encodes an enzyme which generates inosine monophosphate from aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide.

It has two functions:

  • EC 2.1.2.3 - 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase
  • EC 3.5.4.10 - IMP cyclohydrolase
