Function[DUT_ARATH] This enzyme is involved in nucleotide metabolism: it produces dUMP, the immediate precursor of thymidine nucleotides and it decreases the intracellular concentration of dUTP, preventing uracil incorporation into DNA.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedBACKGROUND: Deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) hydrolyzes dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate to maintain the cellular thymine-uracil ratio. dUTPase is also a target for cancer chemotherapy. However, the mechanism defining its substrate affinity remains unclear.

To better understand the roles of tryptophan 93, A. thaliana dUTPase was studied.
