Abstract
The cDNA and derived amino acid sequence of human diadenosine 5', 5''' -P-1, P-4-tetraphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase have been determined wit h the aid of the GenBank Expressed Sequence Tag database. This enzyme possesses a modification of the MuT sequence motif found in certain nu cleotide pyrophosphatases. It is unrelated to the enzymes of diadenosi ne tetraphosphate catabolism found in prokaryotes and fungi.
