Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including heterocyclic compound binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and phosphate ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including NAD+ biosynthetic process via the salvage pathway; nucleoside catabolic process; and positive regulation of interleukin-2 production. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in alimentary system and intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency and purine-pyrimidine metabolic disorder. Orthologous to human PNP (purine nucleoside phosphorylase).
