Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) is an enzyme encoded in humans by the HPRT1 gene.[1][2]
HGPRT is a
5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) to the purine. HGPRT plays a central role in the generation of purine nucleotides through the purine salvage pathway
.

HGPRT catalyzes the following reactions:
Substrate | Product | Notes |
---|---|---|
hypoxanthine | inosine monophosphate |
— |
guanine | guanosine monophosphate | Often called HGPRT. Performs this function only in some species. |
xanthine | xanthosine monophosphate | Only certain HPRTs. |
HGPRTase functions primarily to salvage purines from degraded DNA to reintroduce into purine synthetic pathways. In this role, it catalyzes the reaction between
inosine monophosphate
.
Substrates and inhibitors
Comparative homology modelling of this enzyme in acyclovir and analogs of acyclovir had higher binding affinities than the real substrate (guanosine monophosphate).[3]
The in-vitro correlation of these compounds were test in Leishmania HGPRT and validates the result.[4]
Role in disease
Mutations in the gene lead to hyperuricemia. At least 67 disease-causing mutations in this gene have been discovered:[5]
- Some men have partial (up to 20% less activity of the enzyme) HGPRT deficiency that causes high levels of Kelley–Seegmiller syndrome.[6]
- Lesch–Nyhan syndrome is due to deficiency of HGPRT caused by HPRT1 mutation.[7]
- Some mutations have been linked to gout, the risk of which is increased in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency.
- HPRT expression on the mRNA and protein level is induced by hypoxia inducible factor 1 (myocardial ischemia.[8]
Creation of hybridomas
salvage pathway
, due to lack of HPRT1. The plasma cells in the culture eventually die from senescence, leaving pure hybridoma cells.
