dCTP pyrophosphatase 1

UniProtKB accession:  Q9QY93

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Hydrolyzes deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) to the corresponding nucleoside monophosphates. Has a strong preference for dCTP and its analogs including 5-iodo-dCTP and 5-methyl-dCTP for which it may even have a higher efficiency. May protect DNA or RNA against the incorporation of these genotoxic nucleotide analogs through their catabolism.
