Genes encoding the mitochondrial (SHM1) and cytosolic (SHM2) serine hydroxymethyltransferases, and the L-threonine aldolase gene (GLY1) from Candida albicans were cloned and sequenced. All three genes are involved in glycine metabolism. The C. albica

dUTP pyrophosphatase catalyses hydrolysis of deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) to deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) and inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi). Elimination of dUTP is vital since its misincorporation into DNA by DNA polymerases can initiate a d

Aberrant dUTP metabolism plays a critical role in the molecular mechanism of cell killing induced by inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase and thymidylate synthase. While considerable effort has been directed towards discovering new, more potent inhi

Amino acid sequence comparisons have revealed that a potential dUTPase gene is encoded by the retrovirus HERV-K, a defective multicopy virus that is transmitted vertically in humans. This gene is distinct from the human cellular dUTPase gene and thus

The enzyme dUTP pyrophosphatase (dUTPase, EC 3.6.1.23) is essential for cellular DNA replication and cell viability by virtue of its role in reducing the availability of dUTP as a substrate for DNA polymerases. Several members of the onco- and lentiv

Background The essential enzyme dUTP pyrophosphatase (dUTPase) is exquisitely specific for dUTP and is critical for the fidelity of DNA replication and repair. dUTPase hydrolyzes dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate, simultaneously reducing dUTP levels and

DNA precursor pool imbalances can elicit a variety of genetic effects and modulate the genotoxicity of certain DNA-damaging agents. These and other observations indicate that the control of DNA precursor concentrations is essential for the maintenanc

dUTP pyrophosphatase (dUTPase; EC 3.6.1.23) catalyses the hydrolysis of dUTP to dUMP and PPi and thereby prevents the incorporation of uracil into DNA during replication. Although it is widely believed that dUTPase is essential for cell viability bec

Two functional human dUTP pyrophosphatase (dUTPase; EC 3.6.1.23) cDNAs were isolated from a cDNA expression library by genetic complementation in Escherichia coli. These cDNAs differed in size but exhibited a common overlapping DNA sequence. Containe

The Candida albicans dUTP pyrophosphatase (dUTPase) gene DUT1 has been isolated by genetic complementation in S. cerevisiae. It was found to encode a 17-kDa protein similar in amino-acid sequence to dUTPases isolated from other systems. The gene was
