Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed with highest expression in thymus, testis, embryo and proliferating blood lymphocytes. |
Post Translational Modifications | The N-terminus is blocked. |
Function | Oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphate hydrolase which is a prominent sanitizer of the oxidized nucleotide pool. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of 2-oxo-dATP (2-hydroxy-dATP) into 2-oxo-dAMP. Has also a significant hydrolase activity toward 2-oxo-ATP, 8-oxo-dGTP and 8-oxo-dATP. Through the hydrolysis of oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates, prevents their incorporation into DNA and the subsequent transversions A:T to C:G and G:C to T:A. Also catalyzes the hydrolysis of methylated purine nucleoside triphosphate preventing their integration into DNA. Through this antimutagenic activity protects cells from oxidative stress. |
