Summary: Enables dihydroorotase activity and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase activity. Involved in 'de novo' UMP biosynthetic process and UDP biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; limb bud; respiratory system; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in postaxial acrofacial dysostosis. Orthologous to human DHODH (dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
