gene: cdd-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables RNA binding activity and deoxycytidine deaminase activity. Involved in RNA modification; deoxycytidine catabolic process; and uridine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in intestine; pharynx; and tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lung non-small cell carcinoma and stomach cancer. Is an ortholog of human CDA (cytidine deaminase).
