Nucleoside-Triphosphatase

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: An enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates to nucleoside diphosphates. It may also catalyze the hydrolysis of nucleotide triphosphates, diphosphates, thiamine diphosphates and FAD. The nucleoside triphosphate phosphohydrolases I and II are subtypes of the enzyme which are found mostly in viruses.      Other names Triphosphate Phosphohydrolase, Nucleoside; Triphosphatase, Nucleoside; Phosphohydrolase, Nucleoside Triphosphate; Nucleosidetriphosphatase; Nucleoside Triphosphate Phosphohydrolase II; Nucleoside Triphosphate Phosphohydrolase I; Nucleoside Triphosphate Phosphohydrolase; Nucleoside Triphosphatase; NTPase
