Summary
Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity and ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular carbohydrate metabolic process; pentose catabolic process; and pentose-phosphate shunt, non-oxidative branch. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in intestine. Orthologous to several human genes including RPE (ribulose-5-phosphate-3-epimerase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
