FUNCTION Catalyzes a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of IMP that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY IMP + diphosphate = hypoxanthine + 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate.
GMP + diphosphate = guanine + 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate.
PATHWAY Purine metabolism; IMP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; IMP from hypoxanthine; step 1/1.
SUBUNIT Homodimer (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Cytoplasm (By similarity).
else case <OC:Halobacteria>
FUNCTION May catalyze a purine salvage reaction, the substrate is unknown (Potential).
end case
SIMILARITY Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family. Archaeal HPRT subfamily.

Comments: Halobacteria are known to have both hypoxanthine/guanine and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase activities; therefore we do not know what is the substrate for this enzyme is in Halobacteria.
