DPYD polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [NADP(+)] encoded by DPYD is a pyrimidine catabolic enzyme and the initial and rate-limiting factor in the pathway of uracil and thymidine catabolism. Mutations in this gene result in dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency, an error in pyrimidine metabolism associated with thymine-uraciluria and an increased risk of toxicity in cancer patients receiving 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Research Area: Signal Transduction, Metabolism

Synonyms: DPYD, Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [NADP(+)], DHPDHase, DPD, Dihydrothymine dehydrogenase, Dihydrouracil dehydrogenase
