Samhd1 - SAM domain and HD domain, 1

Enables dGTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including dATP catabolic process; negative regulation of type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway; and protein homotetramerization. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm; site of double-strand break; and tetraspanin-enriched microdomain. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in left lung; right lung; and thymus primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome; Chilblain lupus; acute myeloid leukemia; hepatitis B; and hepatitis C. Orthologous to human SAMHD1 (SAM and HD domain containing deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
