NME8 - NME/NM23 family member 8 Gene
Also Known as CILD6; DNAI8; SPTRX2; TXNDC3; NM23-H8; sptrx-2; HEL-S-99
Species: Homo sapiens
About NME8
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 125 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 4.9), bone marrow (RPKM 3.6) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein with an N-terminal thioredoxin domain and three C-terminal nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) domains, but the NDK domains are thought to be catalytically inactive. The sea urchin ortholog of this gene encodes a component of sperm outer dynein arms, and the protein is implicated in ciliary function. Mutations in this gene are implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia type 6.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
