dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase |
| Gene Summary |
Enables several functions, including dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity; heterocyclic compound binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including circadian rhythm; pyrimidine nucleobase metabolic process; and response to glucocorticoid. Located in cytosol. Used to study colorectal cancer. Biomarker of liver disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute lymphoblastic leukemia; dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human DPYD (dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025] |
