General annotation (Comments)

Function

Essential for recycling GMP and indirectly, cGMP.

Catalytic activity

ATP + GMP = ADP + GDP.

Subunit structure

Monomer By similarity.

Miscellaneous

In addition to phosphorylating GMP, antiviral prodrugs such as acyclovir, ganciclovir, and carbovir and anticancer prodrugs such as the thiopurines are dependent on GMPK for their activation.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the guanylate kinase family.

Contains 1 guanylate kinase-like domain.
