|
Function |
Catalyzes a reversible aldol reaction between acetaldehyde and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to generate 2-deoxy- D-ribose 5-phosphate. Participates in stress granule (SG) assembly. May allow ATP production from extracellular deoxyinosine in conditions of energy deprivation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}. Cytoplasmic granule {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}. Note=Recruited to stress granules but not to processing bodies upon arsenite or clotrimazole treatment or energy deprivation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Mainly expressed in liver, lung and colon. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25229427}.
