Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a uridine kinase. Uridine kinases catalyze the phosphorylation of uridine to uridine monophosphate. This protein has been shown to bind to Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 3 as well as natural killer lytic-associated molecule. Ubiquitination of this protein is enhanced by the presence of natural killer lytic-associated molecule. In addition, protein levels decrease in the presence of natural killer lytic-associated molecule, suggesting that association with natural killer lytic-associated molecule results in ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of this protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014],
Function
catalytic activity:ATP + cytidine = ADP + CMP.,catalytic activity:ATP + uridine = ADP + UMP.,function:May contribute to UTP accumulation needed for blast transformation and proliferation.,pathway:Pyrimidine metabolism; CTP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; CTP from cytidine: step 1/3.,pathway:Pyrimidine metabolism; UMP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; UMP from uridine: step 1/1.,PTM:Ubiquitinated by RNF19B; which induces proteasomal degradation.,similarity:Belongs to the uridine kinase family.,subcellular location:EBNA3 induces isoform 1 translocation to the nucleus, whereas it does change isoform 3 location.,subunit:Interacts with RNF19B and EBV EBNA3.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,
