In enzymology, an AMP nucleosidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are AMP and H2O, whereas its two products are D-ribose 5-phosphate and adenine.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosylases that hydrolyse N-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is AMP phosphoribohydrolase. Other names in common use include adenylate nucleosidase, and adenosine monophosphate nucleosidase. This enzyme participates in purine metabolism.
