HAM1 [YJR069C]
Hydroxylaminopurine sensitivity protein 1; Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase; active against various substrates including ITP, dITP and XTP; mediates exclusion of non canonical purines, pyrimidines from dNTP pools; functions with YJL055W to mediate resistance to 5-FU; specifically reduces the incorporation of 5-FU into RNA without affecting uptake or incorporation of uracil into RNA; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; yeast HAM1 can complement knockdown of human homolog ITPA
Synonyms: HAM1, HAM1p, P47119, J1811, P47119p ...
