Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ITPA gene,[1][2] by the rdgB gene in bacteria E.coli[3] and the HAM1 gene in yeast S. cerevisiae.[4] Two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. Also, at least two other transcript variants have been identified which are probably regulatory rather than protein-coding.[citation needed]

## Function

[edit | edit source]

The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes inosine triphosphate and deoxyinosine triphosphate to the monophosphate nucleotide and diphosphate.[2] The enzyme possesses a multiple substrate-specificity and acts on other nucleotides including xanthosine triphosphate and deoxyxanthosine triphosphate.[4] The encoded protein, which is a member of the HAM1 NTPase protein family, is found in the cytoplasm and acts as a homodimer.

## Clinical significance

[edit | edit source]

Defects in the encoded protein can result in inosine triphosphate pyrophosphorylase deficiency.[2]
