Phosphoribosyl Transferases

Phosphoribosyl transferases are enzymes involved in the salvage synthesis of nucleotides catalyzing the reactions below (see here also):

PRPP + base <=> NMP + PPi,

where NMP is a nucleoside monophosphate, such as AMP.

For example, one such reaction is

PRPP + Adenine <=> AMP + PPi
