Summary
Enables thymidylate synthase activity. Involved in dTMP biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is expressed in body wall musculature; gonad; nerve ring; and terminal bulb. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including abdominal aortic aneurysm; cerebral infarction; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and rheumatoid arthritis. Orthologous to human TYMS (thymidylate synthetase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
