MTAP is a phosphorylase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the addition of an inorganic phosphate to another molecule. MTAP is responsible for the cleaving of its substrate , MTA, into adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate by the addition of the inorganic phosphate to the 1-prime carbon of the ribose sugar unit MTA.
