dUTP diphosphatase
dUTP diphosphatase is involved in nucleotide metabolism: it produces dUMP, the immediate precursor of thymidine nucleotides and it decreases the intracellular concentration of dUTP so that uracil cannot be incorporated into DNA
The main function of these proteins is in maintaining the levels of dUTP in the cell to prevent dUTP incorporation into DNA during DNA replication. The enzyme occurs in bacteria, viruses including prophage regions, and eukaryotes.
