Summary
Enables thymidine phosphorylase activity. Involved in dTMP catabolic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in alimentary system; axial skeleton; central nervous system; hindlimb; and retina. Used to study mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lung non-small cell carcinoma; mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 1; mitochondrial encephalomyopathy; pancreatic cancer; and transitional cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human TYMP (thymidine phosphorylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
