Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** PRPS2 is a cytosolic enzyme, belonging to the ribose phosphate diphosphokinase family. It exhibits homodimeric structure and possesses kinase activity, allowing it to phosphorylate ribose-5-phosphate to form phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). This enzyme is highly expressed in various cell types, including decidual cells, kidney collecting duct cells, and Sertoli cells, suggesting its importance in reproductive and renal functions. **Pathways and Functions:** PRPS2 is integral to the pentose-phosphate pathway (PPP), a metabolic process that generates NADPH and pentoses from glucose-6-phosphate. The PPP is crucial for maintaining redox balance, synthesizing nucleotides, and producing ribose-5-phosphate, a precursor for nucleic acid synthesis. PRPS2 catalyzes the conversion of ribose-5-phosphate to PRPP, which is then used to synthesize nucleotides, such as ATP, NADP+, and UTP. Additionally, PRPS2 is involved in the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism, including the synthesis of glycogen and the breakdown of glycolytic intermediates. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of PRPS2 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Reproductive disorders:** PRPS2 expression is essential for embryonic development and reproductive function. Abnormalities in PRPS2 expression have been linked to infertility, miscarriage, and preterm birth. 2. **Kidney disease:** PRPS2 is highly expressed in kidney collecting duct cells, suggesting its involvement in renal function and disease. Dysregulation of PRPS2 has been associated with kidney disorders, such as acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. 3. **Cancer:** PRPS2 has been implicated in the regulation of nucleotide metabolism, which is critical for cancer cell proliferation and survival. Abnormal expression of PRPS2 has been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 4. **Neurological disorders:** PRPS2 has been linked to neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, which are characterized by impaired nucleotide metabolism and oxidative stress. In conclusion, PRPS2 is a multifaceted enzyme that plays a crucial role in regulating metabolic processes, including carbohydrate, nucleotide, and ribose phosphate biosynthesis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the functions and clinical significance of this enzyme.
