Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Enables glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including monosaccharide metabolic process; negative regulation of cell growth involved in cardiac muscle cell development; and pentose-phosphate shunt, oxidative branch. Predicted to be located in centriolar satellite; cytoplasm; and cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in genitourinary system; nervous system; and nose. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in anemia (multiple); cerebrovascular disease; diabetes mellitus; malaria (multiple); and neonatal jaundice. Orthologous to human G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase).
