Comments [?]

Function This enzyme 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.
Catalytic activity RHEA:10248: dUTP + H2O = diphosphate + dUMP + H(+)
EC 3.6.1.23
Pathway Pyrimidine metabolism; dUMP biosynthesis; dUMP from dCTP (dUTP route): step 2/2.
Similarity Belongs to the dCTP deaminase family. Archaeal dUTPase subfamily.
