NUDT1

protein-coding

nudix hydrolase 1, the group of Nudix hydrolase family

Gene summary

Misincorporation of oxidized nucleoside triphosphates into DNA/RNA during replication and transcription can cause mutations that may result in carcinogenesis or neurodegeneration. The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that hydrolyzes oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates, such as 8-oxo-dGTP, 8-oxo-dATP, 2-hydroxy-dATP, and 2-hydroxy rATP, to monophosphates, thereby preventing misincorporation. The encoded protein is localized mainly in the cytoplasm, with some in the mitochondria, suggesting that it is involved in the sanitization of nucleotide pools both for nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which encode distinct isoforms, have been identified. Additional variants have been observed, but their full-length natures have not been determined. A rare single-nucleotide polymorphism that results in the production of an additional, longer isoform (p26) has been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2018]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_002452.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Antimutagenic (PubMed:8226881, PubMed:7713500, PubMed:10608900). Plays a redundant role in sanitizing oxidized nucleotide pools, such as 8-oxo-dGTP pools (PubMed:28679043). Acts as a sanitizing enzyme for oxidized nucleotide pools, thus suppressing cell dysfunction and death induced by oxidative stress (PubMed:12857738, PubMed:24695224, PubMed:24695225). Hydrolyzes 8- oxo-dGTP, 8-oxo-dATP and 2-OH-dATP, thus preventing misincorporation of oxidized purine nucleoside triphosphates into DNA and subsequently preventing A:T to C:G and G:C to T:A transversions (PubMed:8226881, PubMed:10373420, PubMed:10608900, PubMed:11756418, PubMed:12857738, PubMed:16607562, PubMed:24695224, PubMed:24695225, PubMed:26999531, PubMed:28035004). Able to hydrolyze also the corresponding ribonucleotides, 2-OH-ATP, 8-oxo-GTP and 8-oxo-ATP (PubMed:10373420, PubMed:11139615). Does not play a role in U8 snoRNA decapping activity. Binds U8 snoRNA (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P53368, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10373420, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10608900, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11139615, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11756418, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12857738, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16607562, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22556419, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24695224, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24695225, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26999531, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28035004, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28679043, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7713500, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8226881}.;
