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. Inhibits peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activity by binding of its N-terminal to PPAR, preventing the latter's dimerization with retinoid X receptor.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Rat Deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase
Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm Nucleus Binding to PPAR induces translocation to the nucleus.
