Trifunctional nucleotide phosphoesterase protein YfkN

UniProtKB accession:  O34313

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the release of inorganic phosphate from 2',3'-cyclic nucleotides through consecutive 2',3'-phosphodiesterase and 3'- (or 2') nucleotidase activities. Also possesses a 5'-nucleotidase activity. Does not catalyze the release of inorganic phosphate from 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides. Probably plays a role in the cellular reprocessing of nucleotides present in the medium, under conditions of phosphate shortage.
