Description

Predicted to have NAD+ kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of oxidative stress-induced intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway; regulation of apoptotic cell clearance; and retina layer formation. Localizes to cytosol and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa and retinitis pigmentosa 26. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; gill; heart; kidney; and optic cup. Orthologous to human CERKL (ceramide kinase like).
