Description
Nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase; mediates extracellular nucleotide phosphate hydrolysis along with Npp2p and Pho5p; activity and expression enhanced during conditions of phosphate starvation; involved in spore wall assembly; NPP1 has a paralog, NPP2, that arose from the whole genome duplication, and an npp1 npp2 double mutant exhibits reduced dityrosine fluorescence relative to the single mutants [Source:SGD;Acc:S000000621]
Location
Chromosome III: 164,111-166,339 reverse strand.
R64-1-1:BK006937.2
