[Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] Adenosine monophosphate deaminase 1 catalyzes the deamination of AMP to IMP in skeletal muscle and plays an important role in the purine nucleotide cycle. Two other genes have been identified, AMPD2 and AMPD3, for the liver- and erythocyte-specific isoforms, respectively. Deficiency of the muscle-specific enzyme is apparently a common cause of exercise-induced myopathy and probably the most common cause of metabolic myopathy in the human. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]Summary text based on GO annotations supported by experimental evidence in other organisms
From comparative sequence analysis (see table for details), MGI curators have determined that the gene product of Ampd1:
participates in the following biological processes:
Annotations directly to cellular component for the gene Ampd1 indicate that MGI curators have found no experimental data [literature] to support further annotation to this category at this time.
