.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in cyclic amidines. The systematic name of this enzyme class is dCTP aminohydrolase. Other names in common use include deoxycytidine triphosphate deaminase, and 5-methyl-dCTP deaminase. This enzyme participates in pyrimidine metabolism.
