Description

ENTPD6 encodes a member of the ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase (E-NTPDase) family. The enzyme hydrolyzes extracellular nucleoside triphosphates (e.g., ATP, UTP) to nucleoside diphosphates, regulating purinergic signaling. It is a glycosylated, membrane-bound protein with a conserved apyrase domain. ENTPD6 is involved in immune modulation, platelet aggregation, and vascular biology.

Protein Summary

ENTPD6 (CD39L2) is a 428-amino acid transmembrane protein with an extracellular apyrase domain that hydrolyzes ATP and UTP to ADP and UDP, respectively. It is widely expressed, with highest levels in testis and spleen. The protein plays a role in modulating purinergic receptor activation, impacting immune responses, platelet function, and cell proliferation.
