gene: cdd-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables RNA binding activity; cytidine deaminase activity; and deoxycytidine deaminase activity. Involved in RNA modification; embryo development; and pyrimidine nucleoside metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lung non-small cell carcinoma and stomach cancer. Is an ortholog of human CDA (cytidine deaminase).
