| Function | The purine nucleoside phosphorylases catalyze the phosphorolytic breakdown of the N-glycosidic bond in the beta- (deoxy)ribonucleoside molecules, with the formation of the corresponding free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1902950}. |
| Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. |
