Target (abbrv.) IMDH2
Target (full name) Inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase 2
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL010928 (5250-53_3)
Entrez Gene Symbol IMPDH2
UniProt ID P12268
UniProt Comment
  • Catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-phosphate (XMP), the first committed and rate-limiting step in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, and therefore plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth. Could also have a single-stranded nucleic acid-binding activity and could play a role in RNA and/or DNA metabolism. It may also have a role in the development of malignancy and the growth progression of some tumors.
Targeted by drugs (based on IPA annotation)
  • thioguanine
  • VX-944
  • pegintron/ribavirin
  • interferon alfa-2b/ribavirin
  • mycophenolate mofetil
  • mycophenolic acid
  • ribavirin

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs1005776) and 20 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.
