NDX1

Gene
NDX1
Protein
Protein NEOXANTHIN-DEFICIENT 1
Organism
Oryza sativa subsp. japonica
Length
302 amino acids
Function
Required for neoxanthin biosynthesis. Probably not involved directly in the enzymatic conversion of violaxanthin to neoxanthin. Is necessary but not sufficient for neoxanthin synthesis.

Protein
Diadenosine hexaphosphate hydrolase
Organism
Thermus thermophilus
Length
126 amino acids
Function
Specifically hydrolyzes (di)adenosine polyphosphates but not ATP or diadenosine triphosphate, generating ATP as the product. Diadenosine hexaphosphate (Ap6A) is the preferred substrate and hydrolysis yields 2 ATP. It is the only enzyme that symmetrically hydrolyzes Ap6A. It also hydrolyzes diadenosine pentaphosphate (Ap5A), diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A) and adenosine tetraphosphate (p4A).
Similarity
Belongs to the Nudix hydrolase family.
