Nt5e Gene Summary [Mouse]

This gene encodes a membrane-bound nucleotidase that hydrolyzes extracellular nucleoside monophosphates. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate to a functional, homodimeric enzyme that preferentially uses adenosine monophosphate as a substrate to generate free adenosine. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit a significantly reduced fall in stop flow pressure and superficial nephron glomerular filtration rate in response to a saturating increase of tubular perfusion flow.

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Nt5e often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
