3.6.1.23 additional information down-regulation of the enzyme activity by RNAi greatly reduces cell proliferation and increases the intracellular levels of dUTP. Defects in growth can be partially reverted by the addition of exogenous thymidine. dUTPase-depleted cells present hypersensitivity to methotrexate, a drug that increases the intracellular pools of dUTP, and enhanced uracil-DNA glycosylase activity, the first step in base excision repair, overview Trypanosoma brucei

3.6.1.23 dUTP + H2O Trypanosoma brucei dUTPase has a dual role in pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism, it provides the substrate for the thymidylate synthase allowing the formation of dTTP. Secondly, the enzyme is responsible for keeping dUTP intracellular levels low, avoiding its misincorporation into nascent DNA dUMP + diphosphate
