BPNT1, also called bisphosphate 3-prime-nucleotidase, or
BPntase, is a member of a magnesium-dependent phosphomonoesterase
family. Lithium, a major drug used to treat manic depression, acts
as an uncompetitive inhibitor of BPntase. The predicted human
protein is 92% identical to mouse BPntase. BPntase's physiologic
role in nucleotide metabolism may be regulated by inositol
signaling pathways. The inhibition of human BPntase may account for
lithium-induced nephrotoxicity.1) Johnatty, S.E., et al. PLoS Genet.(7), E1001016 (2010) :
