The crystal structure of Trypanosoma cruzi dUTPase reveals a novel dUTP/dUDP binding fold.

dUTPase is an essential enzyme involved with nucleotide metabolism and replication. We report here the X-ray structure of Trypanosoma cruzi dUTPase in its native conformation and as a complex with dUDP. These reveal a novel protein fold that displays no structural similarities to previously describe...
