NUDIX hydrolase superfamily; 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.

ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase, UDP-glucose pyrophosphatase, and similar proteins; ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase (ADPRase) ( NUDIX (Nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 5; Nudt5) 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.

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.

diadenosine hexaphosphate (Ap6A) hydrolase; Diadenosine hexaphosphate (Ap6A) hydrolase is a member of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily. Ap6A hydrolase specifically hydrolyzes diadenosine polyphosphates, but not ATP or diadenosine triphosphate, and it generates ATP as the product. Ap6A, the most preferred substrate, hydrolyzes to produce two ATP molecules, which is a novel hydrolysis mode for Ap6A. These results indicate that Ap6A hydrolase is a diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolase. It requires the presence of a divalent cation, such as Mn2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, and Co2+, for activity.

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.

coenzyme A pyrophosphatase and similar proteins; Coenzyme A pyrophosphatase (CoAse; EC 3.6.1.1), also called nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 7, is a member of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily, functions to catalyze the elimination of oxidized inactive CoA, which can inhibit CoA-utilizing enzymes. The need of CoAses mainly arises under conditions of oxidative stress. CoAse has a conserved NUDIX fold and requires a single divalent cation for catalysis. In addition to a signature NUDIX motif G[X5]E[X7]REUXEEXGU, where U is Ile, Leu, or Val, CoAse contains an additional motif upstream called the NuCoA motif (LLTXT(SA)X3RX3GX3FPGG) which is postulated to be involved in CoA recognition. CoA plays a central role in lipid metabolism. It is involved in the initial steps of fatty acid sythesis in the cytosol, in the oxidation of fatty acids and the citric acid cycle in the mitochondria, and in the oxidation of long-chain fatty acids in peroxisomes. CoA has the important role of activating fatty acids for further modification into key biological signalling molecules.

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.

diadenosine tetraphosphate; Diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A; EC 3.6.1.17), also called NUDIX (nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X)) motif 2/Nudt2, is a member of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily. Ap4A hydrolases are well represented in a variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Phylogenetic analysis reveals two distinct subgroups where plant enzymes fall into one subfamily and fungi/animals/archaea enzymes, represented by this subfamily, fall into another. Bacterial enzymes are found in both subfamilies. Ap4A is a potential by-product of aminoacyl tRNA synthesis, and accumulation of Ap4A has been implicated in a range of biological events, such as DNA replication, cellular differentiation, heat shock, metabolic stress, and apoptosis. Ap4A hydrolase cleaves Ap4A asymmetrically into ATP and AMP. It is important in the invasive properties of bacteria and thus presents a potential target for inhibition of such invasive bacteria. Besides the signature NUDIX motif (G[X5]E[X7]REUXEEXGU, where U is Ile, Leu, or Val) that functions as a metal binding and catalytic site, and a required divalent cation, Ap4A hydrolase is structurally similar to the other members of the NUDIX hydrolase superfamily with some degree of variation. Several regions in the sequences are poorly defined and substrate and metal binding sites are only predicted based on kinetic studies.

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.

CDP-choline pyrophosphatase catalyzes the hydrolysis of CDP-choline to produce CMP and phosphocholine. ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase catalyzes the hydrolysis of ADP-ribose to AMP and ribose-5-P. UDP-X diphosphatase hydrolyzes UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid and UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine. 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.

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.

bifunctional NMN adenylyltransferase/ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase and similar proteins; Bacterial NadM-Nudix is a bifunctional enzyme containing a nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) and an ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase (ADPRase) domain. NMNAT was initially identified as an NAD+ synthase that catalyzes the reversible conversion of NMN to NAD+ in the final step of both the de novo biosynthesis and salvage pathways in most organisms across all three kingdoms of life ADPRase is a member of the NUDIX family proteins, catalyzes the metal-induced and concerted general acid-base hydrolysis of ADP ribose (ADPR) into AMP and ribose-5'-phosphate (R5P). Additional members in this cd include bacterial transcriptional regulator, NrtR, which represses the transcription of NAD biosynthetic genes in vitro and adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR), as well as NadQ, a NUDIX-like ATP-responsive regulator of NAD biosynthesis.
