Dut Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including dUTP diphosphatase activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in pyrimidine deoxyribonucleotide metabolic process and regulation of protein-containing complex assembly. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Orthologous to human DUT (deoxyuridine triphosphatase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Dut often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
