Illustration of the MTAP (S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine phosphorylase, blue) enzyme binding to a substrate (red). MTAP enzyme catalyses the phosphorolysis of 5'-methylthioadenosine to S-adenosylmethionine. The gene encoding for MTAP is often deleted in human cancers because it is co-deleted with the tumour suppressor gene p16 adjacent to it. | |
