Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including G-quadruplex DNA binding activity; anion binding activity; and kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of myeloid leukocyte differentiation; and ribonucleoside triphosphate biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within nucleotide metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion and myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in teratoma. Orthologous to several human genes including NME2 (NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 2).
