| UniProt functional annotation for P03195 | |||
| UniProt code: P03195. |
| Organism: | Epstein-Barr virus (strain B95-8) (HHV-4) (Human herpesvirus 4). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Duplodnaviria; Heunggongvirae; Peploviricota; Herviviricetes; Herpesvirales; Herpesviridae; Gammaherpesvirinae; Lymphocryptovirus. | |
| Function: | Involved in nucleotide metabolism: produces dUMP, the immediate precursor of thymidine nucleotides and decreases the intracellular concentration of dUTP to avoid uracil incorporation into viral DNA. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04031}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=dUTP + H2O = diphosphate + dUMP + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10248, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:61555, ChEBI:CHEBI:246422; EC=3.6.1.23; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04031}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04031}; | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16154087}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the dUTPase family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_04031}. | |
