Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 3.2)
Predicted to have UDP-N-acetylglucosamine diphosphorylase activity; carbohydrate binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in UDP-N-acetylglucosamine biosynthetic process. Predicted to localize to cytosol; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human UAP1 (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase 1).
