Description
The enzyme preferentially hydrolyses 3- and 7-methylpurine nucleosides, such as 3-methylxanthosine, 3-methyladenosine and 7-methylguanosine. Hydrolysis of 7-methylxanthosine to form 7-methylxanthine is the second step in the caffeine-biosynthesis pathway.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
7-methylxanthosine nucleosidase; N-MeNase; N-methyl nucleoside hydrolase; methylpurine nucleosidase
Reaction
7-methylxanthosine + H2O = 7-methylxanthine + D-ribose
