The protein product of this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of inosine monophosphate to adenosine monophosphate. According to the Gene Cards database (https://www.genecards.org/), ADSS2 “plays an important role in the de novo pathway and in the salvage pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis.” We did not find any links between this gene and asthma in the literature. The gene discussed is ADSS2; the disease is asthma.
