Summary: Predicted to enable S-methyl-5-thioadenosine phosphorylase activity. Acts upstream of or within methylation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in biliary tract benign neoplasm and diaphyseal medullary stenosis with malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Orthologous to human MTAP (methylthioadenosine phosphorylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Oct 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
