A human cDNA encoding 41-kDa phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) synthetase (PRS)-associated protein (PAP41) was cloned from two expressed sequence tag (EST) clones having the nucleotide similarity of 61.5 and 70.0% to human PAP39 cDNA. The predicted open reading frame of 1107 base pairs (bp) has the nucleotide identity of 91.8% to rat PAP41 and encodes a protein of 369 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight (MW) of 40,925. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibits the 98.9% identity to rat PAP41 and 72.2, 50.6, and 50.0% identity with human PAP39, PRS I, and PRS II, respectively, but lacks the PRPP binding site. Southern blot analysis suggested that the PAP41 gene exists as a single copy in the human genome. The single PAP41 mRNA of about 2.1 kb was shown to be present in five human cell lines by Northern blot analysis.

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of nucleotides, any nucleoside that is esterified with (ortho)phosphate or an oligophosphate at any hydroxyl group on the glycose moiety; may be mono-, di- or triphosphate; this definition includes cyclic-nucleotides (nucleoside cyclic phosphates).
Protein involved in the synthesis of a nucleotide, a phosphate ester of a nucleoside consisting of a purine or pyrimidine base linked to ribose or deoxyribose phosphates.
A reference proteome is a set of protein sequences derived from a complete proteome which constitutes a defined standard for a particular user community. Reference proteomes are manually defined according to a number of criteria. They cover the proteomes of well- studied model organisms and other proteomes of interest for biomedical and biotechnological research. Reference proteomes have been selected to provide broad coverage of the tree of life, and constitute a representative cross-section of the taxonomic diversity to be found within UniProtKB.
