Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information the pyrimidine auxotroph Ashbya gossypii mutant Agura3 shows hypersensitivity to uracil. Uridine is the only intermediate of the pyrimidine salvage pathway able to fully restore this mutant's growth. Overexpression of the AgUPRT encoding-gene in Ashbya gossypii mutant Agura3 leads to similar growth on rich medium containing 5 mM uracil or uridine Eremothecium gossypii

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution UPRT is an enzyme that is highly conserved across species and has been characterized in several organisms, from prokaryotes to human Eremothecium gossypii
malfunction the pyrimidine auxotroph Ashbya gossypii mutant Agura3 shows hypersensitivity to uracil. The mutant's growth can be restored by uridine. In silico analysis of the AgUPRT does not highlight any particular feature that can account for limitations in its enzymatic activity Eremothecium gossypii
physiological function uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (UPRT) is the pyrimidine salvage pathway enzyme responsible for converting uracil to uridine monophosphate in the presence of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). Uracil-mediated regulation mechanism of the UPRT activity Eremothecium gossypii
