8-oxo-dGTP diphosphatase

BE0001520ProteinEscherichia coli (strain K12)mutT

Specifically hydrolyzes both 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP) and 8-oxo-guanosine triphosphate (8-oxo-GTP) to the related monophosphates, thereby cleaning up the nucleotide pools and preventing misincorporation of 8-oxoGua into DNA and RNA (PubMed:1309939, PubMed:15850400, PubMed:9311918). It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
