Gene Summary

Enables several functions, including magnesium ion binding activity; nucleoside diphosphate kinase activity; and purine ribonucleoside triphosphate binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment or maintenance of polarity of follicular epithelium; open tracheal system development; and phosphorylation. Located in nuclear microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior endoderm; circulatory system; embryonic/larval muscle system; extended germ band embryo; and gonad. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neuroblastoma; ovary epithelial cancer; and teratoma. Orthologous to several human genes including NME1 (NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 1).
