Nt5c2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables 5'-nucleotidase activity. Involved in allantoin metabolic process; amide catabolic process; and purine nucleoside monophosphate catabolic process. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary spastic paraplegia 45. Orthologous to human NT5C2 (5'-nucleotidase, cytosolic II). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Nt5c2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
