Recombinant Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase from E. coli

Description:
Recombinant Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase (RPPK) from *Escherichia coli* is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of nucleotides by catalyzing the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to ribose-5-phosphate, forming ribose-1,5-bisphosphate. This enzyme is essential for the synthesis of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of nucleic acids. RPPK is characterized by its specificity for ribose-5-phosphate and its dependence on ATP as a phosphate donor. The recombinant form of the enzyme is often produced in laboratory settings for research purposes, allowing for the study of its kinetics, structure, and function. It typically exhibits optimal activity under specific pH and temperature conditions, which can vary based on the purification and expression methods used. The enzyme is also of interest in biotechnology and metabolic engineering, where it can be utilized to enhance nucleotide production in microbial systems. Its CAS number, 9031-46-3, is a unique identifier that facilitates its recognition in chemical databases and literature.
