Entrez gene ID | | 1807 |
Official gene symbol | | DPYS |
Full name | | dihydropyrimidinase |
Aliases | | ,DHP,DHPase, |
Gene summary | | Dihydropyrimidinase catalyzes the conversion of 5,6-dihydrouracil to 3-ureidopropionate in pyrimidine metabolism. Dihydropyrimidinase is expressed at a high level in liver and kidney as a major 2.5-kb transcript and a minor 3.8-kb transcript. Defects in the DPYS gene are linked to dihydropyrimidinuria.
