Introduction
Hydrolase that metabolizes extracellular nucleotides, including ATP, GTP, UTP and CTP (PubMed:29717535, PubMed:9344668). Limits mast cells and basophils response during inflammation and during the chronic phases of allergic responses by eliminating extracellular ATP, a signaling molecule activating these cells in an autocrine manner. Metabolizes extracellular ATP in the lumen of the small intestine, and thereby prevents ATP-induced apoptosis of intestinal plasmacytoid dendritic cells (By similarity). Has a broad specificity and can also hydrolyze UDP-GlcNAc into UMP and GlcNAc-1-phosphate and potentially several other intracellular nucleotide sugars, including UDP-GalNAc, CMP-NeuAc, GDP-Fuc, and UDP-GlcA. Thereby, could modulate glycan biosynthesis and protein glycosylation (By similarity). Can hydrolyze extracellular dinucleoside polyphosphates, including the vasoactive adenosine polyphosphates as well (PubMed:12846830). In addition, displays an alkaline phosphodiesterase activity in vitro (PubMed:11342463).
