Nucleoside diphosphatase activity has been found in the cytosol of soybean (Glycine max) and alfalfa (Medicago satavia) nodules. The enzyme differs from other diphosphatases in that it does not exhibit a strong preference for one nucleoside diphosphate over another. Very little, if any, diphosphatase activity was detected in root extracts of alfalfa and soybean seedlings.
