Putative metallo-dependent hydrolase superfamily protein; similar to AMP deaminases but lacks key catalytic residues and does not rescue purine nucleotide metabolic defect of quadruple aah1 ade8 amd1 his1 mutant; may regulate purine nucleotide homeostasis as overexpression in an AMD1 strain grown in adenine results in greatly reduced GDP and GTP intracellular levels; not an essential gene; YJL070C has a paralog, YBR284W, that arose from the whole genome duplication
