Reaction: ATP + nucleoside diphosphate = ADP + nucleoside triphosphate
For diagram of reaction click here.
Other names: nucleoside 5'-diphosphate kinase; nucleoside diphosphate (UDP) kinase; nucleoside diphosphokinase; nucleotide phosphate kinase; UDP kinase; uridine diphosphate kinase
Systematic name: ATP:nucleoside-diphosphate phosphotransferase
Comments: Many nucleoside diphosphates can act as acceptors, while many ribo- and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates can act as donors.
