Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Enables dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity. Involved in pyrimidine nucleoside monophosphate catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within pyrimidine nucleobase catabolic process. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; musculature; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute lymphoblastic leukemia; dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human DPYD (dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase).
