dhp-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in cyclic amides. Involved in pyrimidine nucleobase catabolic process. Located in cytoplasm. Expressed in body wall musculature. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ritscher-Schinzel syndrome; dihydropyrimidinase deficiency; and purine-pyrimidine metabolic disorder. Is an ortholog of human DPYS (dihydropyrimidinase).
