Description

NUDT14 (Nudix Hydrolase 14) encodes a member of the Nudix hydrolase family. The protein catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-sugars, such as UDP-glucose and UDP-glucuronic acid, to UMP and sugar-1-phosphate. This activity regulates nucleotide sugar pools and influences glycosylation and cellular signaling. The gene is located on chromosome 14q24.3 and is expressed in various tissues.

Protein Summary

NUDT14 is a 224-amino acid protein (UniProt Q9BZP3) belonging to the Nudix hydrolase superfamily. It contains a conserved Nudix box motif (GX5EX7REUXEEXGU, where U is a hydrophobic residue). The enzyme specifically hydrolyzes UDP-sugars, releasing UMP and sugar-1-phosphate. This activity is important for maintaining nucleotide sugar homeostasis and may impact glycosylation pathways. The protein is localized in the cytoplasm and is expressed in liver, kidney, and other tissues.
