Abstract
IMPDH2 is a rate-limiting enzyme in guanine nucleotide biosynthesis. It plays diverse roles in various physiological and pathological processes: nucleotide metabolism, inflammation, immune function, ribosomal stress. Structural or regulatory alterations in IMPDH2 are linked to significant health issues, and critical relevance in disease progression. We aim to underscore the potential of IMPDH2 as a promising therapeutic target for clinical applications.
