dihydroneopterin hydrolase; DHNTP pyrophosphatase (DHNTPase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of dihydroneopterin triphosphate (DHNTP) to dihydroneopterin monophosphate (DHNMP) and pyrophosphate,the second step in the pterin branch of the folate synthesis pathway in bacteria. Members of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily catalyze the hydrolysis of NUcleoside DIphosphates linked to other moieties, X. Enzymes belonging to this superfamily require a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for their activity and contain a highly conserved 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), which functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. Substrates of NUDIX hydrolases include intact and oxidatively damaged nucleoside triphosphates, dinucleoside polyphosphates, nucleotide-sugars and dinucleotide enzymes. These substrates are metabolites or cell signaling molecules that require regulation during different stages of the cell cycle or during periods of stress. In general, the role of the NUDIX hydrolase is to sanitize the nucleotide pools and to maintain cell viability, thereby serving as surveillance _ "house-cleaning" enzymes. Substrate specificity is used to define families within the superfamily. Differences in substrate specificity are determined by the N-terminal extension or by residues in variable loop regions. Mechanistically, substrate hydrolysis occurs by a nucleophilic substitution reaction, with variation in the numbers and roles of divalent cations required.

MutT pyrophosphohydrolase; The MutT pyrophosphohydrolase is a prototypical NUDIX hydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside and deoxynucleoside triphosphates (NTPs and dNTPs) by substitution at a beta-phosphorus to yield a nucleotide monophosphate (NMP) and inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi). This enzyme requires two divalent cations for activity; one coordinates the phosphoryl groups of the NTP/dNTP substrate, and the other coordinates to the enzyme. It also contains the NUDIX motif, a highly conserved 23-residue block (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), that functions as metal binding and catalytic site. MutT pyrophosphohydrolase is important in preventing errors in DNA replication by hydrolyzing mutagenic nucleotides such as 8-oxo-dGTP (a product of oxidative damage), which can mispair with template adenine during DNA replication, to guanine nucleotides.

MutT homolog-1 and similar proteins; MutT homolog-1 (MTH1), also known as NUDIX (nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 1/Nudt1, is a member of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily. MTH1, the mammalian counterpart of MutT, hydrolyzes oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates, such as 8-oxo-dGTP and 2-hydroxy-ATP, to monophosphates, thereby preventing the incorporation of such oxygen radicals during replication. This is an important step in the repair mechanism in genomic and mitochondrial DNA. Like other members of the NUDIX family, it requires a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for activity, and contain the NUDIX motif, a highly conserved 23-residue block (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), that functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. MTH1 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm and mitochondria. Structurally, this enzyme adopts a similar fold to MutT despite low sequence similarity outside the conserved NUDIX motif. The most distinctive structural difference between MutT and MTH1 is the presence of a beta-hairpin, which is absent in MutT. This results in a much deeper and narrower substrate binding pocket. Mechanistically, MTH1 contains dual specificity for nucleotides that contain 2-OH-adenine bases and those that contain 8-oxo-guanine bases.

NADH pyrophosphatase; NADH pyrophosphatase, also known as NUDIX (nucleoside diphosphate linked moiety X)) motif 13/Nudt13, is thought to have NADH pyrophosphatase activity, be involved in NADH metabolic process and NADP catabolic process, catalyzing the cleavage of NADH into reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMNH) and AMP, and located in mitochondrion. Like other members of the NUDIX family, it requires a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for activity. Members of this family are also recognized by the NUDIX motif, a highly conserved 23-residue block (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), that functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. A block of 8 conserved amino acids downstream of the NUDIX motif is thought to give NADH pyrophosphatase its specificity for NADH. NADH pyrophosphatase forms a dimer.

ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase; ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase (ADPRase; EC 3.6.1.13) catalyzes the hydrolysis of ADP-ribose to AMP and ribose-5-P. Like other members of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily of enzymes, it is thought to require a divalent cation, such as Mg2+, for its activity. It also contains a 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V) which functions as a metal binding site/catalytic site. In addition to the NUDIX motif, there are additional conserved amino acid residues, distal from the signature sequence, that correlate with substrate specificity. In humans, there are four distinct ADPRase activities, three putative cytosolic (ADPRase-I, -II, and -Mn) and a single mitochondrial enzyme (ADPRase-m). ADPRase-m is also known as NUDT9. It can be distinugished from the cytosolic ADPRase by a N-terminal target sequence unique to mitochondrial ADPRase. NUDT9 functions as a monomer.

MutT homolog 2; MutT Homolog 2 (MTH2; EC 3.6.1.9), also known as NUDIX (nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 15/Nudt15, may catalyze the hydrolysis of nucleoside diphosphates, triphosphates including dGTP, dTTP, dCTP, their oxidized forms like 8-oxo-dGTP, and prodrug thiopurine derivatives 6-thio-dGTP and 6-thio-GTP. MTH2 may also play a role in DNA synthesis and cell cycle progression by stabilizing PCNA. Members of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily catalyze the hydrolysis of NUcleoside DIphosphates linked to other moieties, X. Enzymes belonging to this superfamily require a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for their activity and contain a highly conserved 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), which functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. Substrates of NUDIX hydrolases include intact and oxidatively damaged nucleoside triphosphates, dinucleoside polyphosphates, nucleotide-sugars and dinucleotide enzymes. These substrates are metabolites or cell signaling molecules that require regulation during different stages of the cell cycle or during periods of stress. In general, the role of the NUDIX hydrolase is to sanitize the nucleotide pools and to maintain cell viability, thereby serving as surveillance _ "house-cleaning" enzymes. Substrate specificity is used to define families within the superfamily. Differences in substrate specificity are determined by the N-terminal extension or by residues in variable loop regions. Mechanistically, substrate hydrolysis occurs by a nucleophilic substitution reaction, with variation in the numbers and roles of divalent cations required.

MutT homolog-1 (MTH1); MutT homolog-1 (MTH1; EC 3.6.1.- ), also called nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 1 (Nudt1), is a member of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily. MTH1, the mammalian counterpart of MutT, hydrolyzes oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates, such as 8-oxo-dGTP and 2-hydroxy-ATP, to monophosphates, thereby preventing the incorporation of such oxygen radicals during replication. This is an important step in the repair mechanism in genomic and mitochondrial DNA. Like other members of the NUDIX family, it requires a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for activity, and contain the NUDIX motif, a highly conserved 23-residue block (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), that functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. MTH1 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm and mitochondria. Structurally, this enzyme adopts a similar fold to MutT despite low sequence similarity outside the conserved NUDIX motif. The most distinctive structural difference between MutT and MTH1 is the presence of a beta-hairpin, which is absent in MutT. This results in a much deeper and narrower substrate binding pocket. Mechanistically, MTH1 contains dual specificity for nucleotides that contain 2-OH-adenine bases and those that contain 8-oxo-guanine bases.

The Nudt6 gene overlaps and lies on the opposite strand from FGF2 gene, and is thought to be the FGF2 antisense gene. The two genes are independently transcribed, and their expression shows an inverse relationship, suggesting that this antisense transcript may regulate FGF2 expression. This gene has also been shown to have hormone-regulatory and antiproliferative actions in the pituitary that are independent of FGF2 expression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Adp Ribose Pyrophosphatase; ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase (ADPRase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of ADP-ribose and a variety of additional ADP-sugar conjugates to AMP and ribose-5-phosphate. In humans, there are four distinct ADPRase activities, three putative cytosolic enzymes (ADPRase-I, -II, and -Mn) and a single mitochondrial enzyme (ADPRase-m). Human ADPRase-II is also referred to as NUDT5. It lacks the N-terminal target sequence unique to mitochondrial ADPRase. The different cytosolic types are distinguished by their specificities for substrate and specific requirement for metal ions. NUDT5 forms a homodimer. It also contains a highly conserved 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V) which functions as a metal binding site/catalytic site. In addition to the NUDIX motif, there are additional conserved amino acid residues, distal from the signature sequence, that correlate with substrate specificity. UDP-glucose pyrophosphatase (UGPPase) (EC 3.6.1.45; also known as nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 14; Nudt14) hydrolyzes the pyrophosphate of the nucleoside diphosphate sugar to generate glucose-1-P and UMP. In mammals, UDP-glucose is the glucosyl donor for the synthesis of the storage polysaccharide glycogen. UGPPase, as a regulator of UDP-glucose, could play a regulatory role, but it has been shown to prefer ADP-ribose over UDP-glucose. Like other members of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily, it requires a divalent cation, such as Mg2+, for its activity. It also contains a highly conserved 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V) which functions as a metal binding site/catalytic site.

uncharacterized NUDIX hydrolase subfamily; NUDIX hydrolase is a superfamily of enzymes found in all three kingdoms of life, and it catalyzes the hydrolysis of NUcleoside DIphosphates linked to other moieties, X. Enzymes belonging to this superfamily require a divalent cation, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+ for their activity. Members of this family are recognized by a highly conserved 23-residue NUDIX motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U = I, L or V), which forms a structural motif that functions as a metal binding and catalytic site. Substrates of NUDIX hydrolase include intact and oxidatively damaged nucleoside triphosphates, dinucleoside polyphosphates, nucleotide-sugars and dinucleotide enzymes. These substrates are metabolites or cell signaling molecules that require regulation during different stages of the cell cycle or during periods of stress. In general, the role of the NUDIX hydrolase is to sanitize the nucleotide pools and to maintain cell viability, thereby serving as surveillance and "house-cleaning" enzymes. Substrate specificity is used to define child families within the superfamily. Differences in substrate specificity are determined by the N-terminal extension or by residues in variable loop regions. Mechanistically, substrate hydrolysis occurs by a nucleophilic substitution reaction, with variation in the numbers and roles of divalent cations required. This superfamily consists of at least nine families: IPP (isopentenyl diphosphate) isomerase, ADP ribose pyrophosphatase, mutT pyrophosphohydrolase, coenzyme-A pyrophosphatase, MTH1-7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine-triphosphatase, diadenosine tetraphosphate hydrolase, NADH pyrophosphatase, GDP-mannose hydrolase and the c-terminal portion of the mutY adenine glycosylase.
