| Specificity: | Recombinant fusion protein containing a sequence corresponding to amino acids 1-197 of human GUK1 (NP_000849.1). |
| Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed. |
| Function | Catalyzes the phosphorylation of GMP to GDP. Essential enzyme for recycling GMP and indirectly, cyclic GMP (cGMP). Involved in the cGMP metabolism in photoreceptors. It may also have a role in the survival and growth progression of some tumors. In addition to its physiological role, GUK1 is essential for converting prodrugs used for the treatment of cancers and viral infections into their pharmacologically active metabolites, most notably acyclovir, ganciclovir, and 6-thioguanine and its closely related analog 6-mercaptopurine. |
