NCIt definition : Human ASMTL wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of both Xp22.3 and Yp11.3
and is approximately 51 kb in length. This allele, which encodes probable bifunctional
dTTP/UTP pyrophosphatase/methyltransferase protein, plays a role in methyltransferase
activity and the hydrolysis of dTTP, UTP, CTP and modified pyrimidines. Point mutations
in this gene may be associated with childhood B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.;
NCIt note : The ASMTL gene is located in the pseudoautosomal region 1 (PAR1) of the X and Y chromosomes.
