'''Deoxyuridine 5’-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase''' (DUTP) catalyzes the conversion of dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate (PPi). DUTP plays a key role in keeping significant amounts of dUTP from the DNA synthesis pathway. | '''Deoxyuridine 5’-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase''' or '''Deoxyuridine triphosphatase''' or '''dUTP pyrophosphatase''' (DUTP) catalyzes the conversion of dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate (PPi).
