Cytosolic purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) trimer catalyzes the reversible reaction of guanosine or deoxyguanosine with orthophosphate to form guanine and ribose 1-phosphate or deoxyribose 1-phosphate (Ealick et al. 1990; Wiginton et al. 1980). PNP deficiency in vivo is associated with accumulation of guanosine and deoxyguanosine and leads to immunodeficiency (Williams et al. 1987).
