glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase |
| Gene Summary |
Predicted to enable N-acylmannosamine kinase activity and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase activity. Predicted to be involved in UDP-N-acetylglucosamine metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within N-acetylneuraminate metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in GNE myopathy and sialuria. Orthologous to human GNE (glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase).
