DNA nucleotidylexotransferase (DNTT), also known as Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), is a unique template-independent DNA polymerase belonging to the DNA polymerase type-X family. Encoded by the DNTT gene, this enzyme is expressed in a limited subset of pre-B and pre-T lymphocytes, both normal and malignant, during early stages of differentiation. DNTT plays a crucial role in the development of the immune system by catalyzing the random addition of deoxynucleotides to the 3'-hydroxyl terminus of DNA primers, thereby generating N-regions at the junctions of rearranged Ig heavy chain and T cell receptor gene segments. This process is essential for creating diversity in antigen receptor molecules. Furthermore, DNTT's expression in neuroendocrine carcinomas and its presence in certain types of leukemia highlight its significance as a biochemical marker for the classification of these diseases.
