Itpa - inosine triphosphatase (nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphatase)

Enables dITP diphosphatase activity. Acts upstream of or within ITP catabolic process and chromosome organization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including anemia (multiple); developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 35; hepatitis C; rheumatoid arthritis; and thrombocytopenia. Orthologous to human ITPA (inosine triphosphatase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
