NUDT18 nudix hydrolase 18 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 79873)
Symbol: NUDT18
Full name: nudix hydrolase 18
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: MTH3
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Nudix hydrolase family. Nudix hydrolases eliminate potentially toxic nucleotide metabolites from the cell and regulate the concentrations and availability of many different nucleotide substrates, cofactors, and signaling molecules. This protein contains a Nudix hydrolase domain and hydrolyzes oxidized forms of guanosine and deoxyguanosine diphosphates. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012]
