Gene information for NME8 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51314
Official gene symbolNME8
Full namethioredoxin domain containing 3 (spermatozoa)
Aliases,CILD6,NM23-H8,SPTRX2,TXNDC3,sptrx-2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein with an N-terminal thioredoxin domain and three C-terminal nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) domains, but the NDK domains are thought to be catalytically inactive. The sea urchin ortholog of this gene encodes a component of sperm outer dynein arms, and the protein is implicated in ciliary function. Mutations in this gene are implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia type 6.
