Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Contributes to 2-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)histidine synthase activity. Involved in protein histidyl modification to diphthamide. Acts upstream of or within cell population proliferation. Part of 2-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)histidine synthase complex. Is active in cytosol and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and lung. Used to study Miller-Dieker lissencephaly syndrome and diphthamide deficiency syndrome 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diphthamide deficiency syndrome 1. Orthologous to human DPH1 (diphthamide biosynthesis 1).
