Biological function summary
IMPDH2 functions as a homotetramer forming part of a larger complex that regulates nucleotide levels. This regulation is critical for cell growth differentiation and proliferation. IMPDH2 activity drives the synthesis of guanine nucleotides which are essential for DNA and RNA synthesis influencing cellular communication and energy transfer.
Pathways
The target IMPDH2 has a significant role in the purine nucleotide biosynthesis pathway aligning with other enzymes like GMP synthetase. This pathway is critical in maintaining cellular nucleotide pools. IMPDH2’s activity closely interacts with guanosine monophosphate reductase within the same pathway ensuring the balance between different types of nucleotides necessary for various cellular processes.

General info
Function
Catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-phosphate (XMP), the first committed and rate-limiting step in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, and therefore plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth (PubMed : 7763314, PubMed : 7903306). Could also have a single-stranded nucleic acid-binding activity and could play a role in RNA and/or DNA metabolism (PubMed : 14766016). It may also have a role in the development of malignancy and the growth progression of some tumors.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the IMPDH/GMPR family.
Post-translational modifications
Ubiquitinated leading to its degradation by the proteasome.. The N-terminus is blocked.. Acetylated by CLOCK in a circadian manner (PubMed:28985504).
