The deoxynucleoside kinase NK12 is a mesophilic enzyme originating from Drosophila melanogaster. It phosphorylates deoxynucleosides to dNMPs using (d)ATP as phosphate donor. The enzyme differs from other 2'-deoxyribonucleoside kinases [EC 2.7.1.76 (2'-deoxyadenosine kinase) and EC 2.7.1.113 (deoxyguanosine kinase)] in its broad specificity for all four common deoxynucleosides. The quasi-irreversible transfer of phosphate from the high energy donor to the nucleoside enables high NMP yields.
