EC 3.6.1.12     
Accepted name: dCTP diphosphatase
Reaction: dCTP + H2O = dCMP + diphosphate
Other name(s): DCTPP1 (gene name); deoxycytidine-triphosphatase; dCTPase; dCTP pyrophosphatase; deoxycytidine triphosphatase; deoxy-CTPase
Systematic name: dCTP nucleotidohydrolase
Comments: The mammalian enzyme also displays weak activity against dTTP and dATP, but none against dGTP. Activity is highest with analogs including 5-iodo-dCTP and 5-methyl-dCTP.
