Function
Also called TXNDC3, Candidate gene for PCD. Encodes a thioredoxine- nucleoside diphosphate kinase expressed in testis and respiratory epithelial cells. It is shown to have binding properties to ( 17360648). Human ortholog of the sea urchin IC1 gene that encodes a component of sperm outer dynein arms ( 19410201).
