Function
NTPPA_ECOLI Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphatase that hydrolyzes dTTP and UTP (PubMed:24210219, PubMed:25658941, PubMed:28811554). Can also hydrolyze TTP and the modified nucleotides 5-methyl-UTP (m(5)UTP), pseudo-UTP and 5-methyl-CTP (m(5)CTP). Has weak activity with CTP (PubMed:24210219, PubMed:25658941). May have a dual role in cell division arrest and in preventing the incorporation of modified nucleotides into cellular nucleic acids (PubMed:24210219, PubMed:25658941). Important in maintenance of cell shape (PubMed:25658941).[1] [2] [3]
