NUDT7

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Nudix hydrolase family. Nudix hydrolases eliminate potentially toxic nucleotide metabolites from the cell and regulate the concentrations and availability of many different nucleotide substrates, cofactors, and signaling molecules. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Nudix Hydrolase 7

Fatty acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) diphosphatase that hydrolyzes fatty acyl-CoA to yield acyl-4'-phosphopantetheine and adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate (By similarity).
Cleaves CoA, CoA esters and oxidized CoA with similar efficiencies (By similarity).
Preferentially hydrolyzes medium-chain acyl-CoAs and bile acid-CoAs (By similarity).
Has no activity toward NDP-sugars, CDP-alcohols, (deoxy)nucleoside 5'-triphosphates, nucleoside 5'-di or monophosphates, diadenosine polyphosphates, NAD, NADH, NADP, NADPH or thymidine-5'-monophospho-p-nitrophenyl ester (By similarity).
May be required to eliminate oxidized CoA from peroxisomes, or regulate CoA and acyl-CoA levels in this organelle in response to metabolic demand (By similarity).
Does not play a role in U8 snoRNA decapping activity (By similarity).
Binds U8 snoRNA (By similarity).
Exhibits decapping activity towards dpCoA-capped RNAs in vitro (By similarity).
