NCIt definition : Human IMPDH1 wild-type allele is located within 7q31.3-q32 and is approximately 18
kb in length. This allele, which encodes inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase 1
protein, is involved in de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides. Defects in the IMPDH1
gene cause autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa type 10.;
NCIt note : The IMPDH1 gene may be involved in both malignant transformation and tumor progression.;
