Component of the purine nucleotide cycle (PNC), which interconverts IMP and AMP to regulate the nucleotide levels in various tissues, and which contributes to glycolysis and ammoniagenesis. Catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of AMP from IMP (By similarity).
Vertebrates have muscle and non-muscle isozymes of adenylosuccinate synthetase (AdSS, EC 6.3.4.4), which catalyzes the first committed step in AMP synthesis. A novel muscle isozyme of adenylosuccinate synthetase, human AdSSL1, is identified from human bone marrow stromal cells. AdSSL1 is 98% identical to mouse muscle type AdSS1 and contains conserved sequence and structural features of adenylosuccinate synthetase. Human AdSSL1 gene is mapped to chromosome 14p32.33. After stimulation, leukemia cells express AdSSL1 in a time-dependent manner different from that of non-muscle adenylosuccinate synthetase. The human AdSSL1 is predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and cardiac tissue consistent with the potential role for the enzyme in muscle metabolism. Overexpressed AdSSL1 protein in COS-7 cells locates in cytoplasm. Recombinant AdSSL1 protein possesses typical enzymatic activity to catalyze adenylosuccinate formation. The identification of human AdSSL1 with predominant expression in muscle tissue will facilitate future genetic and biochemical analysis of the enzyme in muscle physiology.

Protein involved in the biosynthesis of purine, a nitrogenous heterocyclic base, e.g. adenine, guanine, hypoxanthine and xanthine. De novo synthesis involves a complex, energy-expensive pathway that yields inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP), a purine ribonucleotide. AMP and GMP are then formed from IMP in separate pathways. Adenine and guanine are found in both DNA and RNA. Hypoxanthine and xanthine are important intermediates in the synthesis and degradation of the purine nucleotides.
Enzyme that catalyzes the joining of two molecules coupled with the breakdown of a pyrophosphate bond in ATP or a similar triphosphate. Sometimes the terms "synthase", "synthetase" or "carboxylase" are also used for this class of enzymes.
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.
