Predicted to enable 5'-nucleotidase activity. Predicted to be involved in adenosine metabolic process. Located in nucleus.
RGD Description
This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring NT5C1B (5'-nucleotidase, cytosolic IB) and RDH14 (retinol dehydrogenase 14) genes on chromosome 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, one of which encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with the products of each individual gene.
