Description
A divalent cation is required for activity. UDP-sugar is the best substrate, although other nucleoside-sugar diphosphates are used as substrates with similar Km values but much lower maximum velocities. Thus, this enzyme has a specificity distinct from that of ADP-sugar diphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.21). Some but not all enzymes of this class also appear to have 5'-nucleotidase (see EC 3.1.3.5) activity.
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
nucleosidediphosphate-sugar pyrophosphatase; nucleosidediphosphate-sugar diphosphatase; UDP-sugar hydrolase; UDP-sugar pyrophosphatase
Reaction
UDP-sugar + H2O = UMP + α-D-aldose 1-phosphate
