dUTPase
dUTPase hydrolyses dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate. [1]. 1311056. Crystal structure of a dUTPase. Cedergren-Zeppezauer ES, Larsson G, Nyman PO, Dauter Z, Wilson KS;. Nature 1992;355:740-743. [2]. 8805593. Human dUTP pyrophosphatase: uracil recognition by a beta hairpin and active sites formed by three separate subunits. Mol CD, Harris JM, McIntosh EM, Tainer JA;.

dUTP diphosphatase
The main function of these proteins is in maintaining the levels of dUTP in the cell to prevent dUTP incorporation into DNA during DNA replication. The enzyme occurs in bacteria, viruses including prophage regions, and eukaryotes.
