Nme5 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable 3'-5' exonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in cilium movement and negative regulation of oxidative stress-induced intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cilium movement involved in extracellular fluid movement; spermatid development; and ventricular system development. Predicted to be located in sperm flagellum. Predicted to be part of radial spoke. Predicted to be active in cilium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia. Orthologous to human NME5 (NME/NM23 family member 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 rat Nme5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
