Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) plays a central role in the formation and control of the optimal levels of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, which are required for DNA replication and repair. In eukaryotic cells, both enzyme activity and the mRNAs encoding the two non-identical subunits, proteins R1 and R2, are cell cycle regulated with maximal levels during S phase.
