Function

GP12_BPT7 Plays a role in increasing the intracellular pool of dGTP. Interacts with and inhibits host dGTPase/dgt. The complex made of the host dGTPase and gene 1.2 protein creates a GTP-binding site of high affinity. Subsequent binding of GTP to the enzyme-inhibitor complex inhibits its dissociation.[1] [2]
