This gene encodes one of the enzymes required for cellular nucleic acid biosynthesis. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to CMP, UMP, or dCMP, to form the corresponding diphosphate nucleotide. Alternate splicing results in both coding and non-coding transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012],catalytic activity:ATP + (d)CMP = ADP + (d)CDP.,cofactor:Magnesium.,function:Catalyzes specific phosphoryl transfer from ATP to UMP and CMP.,similarity:Belongs to the adenylate kinase family.,subcellular location:Mainly nuclear.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed.,
