Nucleotides are major high-energy phosphate carriers, subunits of nucleic acids and precursors for the synthesis of nucleotide cofactors such as NAD+ and SAM. The study of purine nucleotides metabolism is very important topic for a right understanding for the cellular life. Living cells rely on ATP for growth, differentiation, and response to physiological stimuli and environmental stress.
