Introduction:
RRM1 (Ribonucleotide reductase M1 polypeptide) is one of two non-identical subunits that constitute ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase, an enzyme which catalyzes the biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleotides from the corresponding ribonucleotides. It provides the precursors necessary for DNA synthesis. RRM1 is involved in carcinogenesis, tumor progression.
