DHODH
geneOn this page
Summary
DHODH (dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone), HGNC:2867) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q22.2, encoding Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone), mitochondrial (Q02127). Catalyzes the conversion of dihydroorotate to orotate with quinone as electron acceptor. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 33.9% of cell lines).
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the fourth enzymatic step, the ubiquinone-mediated oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate, in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. This protein is a mitochondrial protein located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Function. Catalyzes the conversion of dihydroorotate to orotate with quinone as electron acceptor. Required for UMP biosynthesis via de novo pathway.
Subunit / interactions. Monomer.
Subcellular location. Mitochondrion inner membrane.
Post-translational modifications. The uncleaved transit peptide is required for mitochondrial targeting and proper membrane integration.
Disease relevance. Postaxial acrofacial dysostosis (POADS) [MIM:263750] An autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by severe micrognathia, cleft lip and/or palate, hypoplasia or aplasia of the posterior elements of the limbs, coloboma of the eyelids and supernumerary nipples. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Cofactor. Binds 1 FMN per subunit.
Pathway. Pyrimidine metabolism; UMP biosynthesis via de novo pathway; orotate from (S)-dihydroorotate (quinone route): step 1/1.
Miscellaneous. The identification of DHODH defects as the cause of postaxial acrofacial dysostosis (POADS) was obtained via exome sequencing, demonstrating that this method is a powerful tool for identifying genes underlying rare Mendelian disorders. Exome sequencing consists of targeted resequencing of all protein-coding subsequences, which requires around 5% as much sequencing as a whole human genome.
Similarity. Belongs to the dihydroorotate dehydrogenase family. Type 2 subfamily.
