Summary: Enables bis(5'-adenosyl)-hexaphosphatase activity and inositol diphosphate pentakisphosphate diphosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including glucose homeostasis; inositol phosphate metabolic process; and lipid homeostasis. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central brain primordium; embryonic brain; embryonic central brain neurons; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; and gut section. Orthologous to several human genes including NUDT4 (nudix hydrolase 4) and NUDT4B (nudix hydrolase 4B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Aps knockdown in Drosophila central nervous system, or the insulin-producing cells induces hyperinsulinemia-like phenotypes, including decrease in circulating trehalose levels as well as decreasing all carbohydrate levels under starvation conditions.
Title: The Obesity-Linked Gene Nudt3 Drosophila Homolog Aps Is Associated With Insulin Signaling.
These data suggest that the redox state of Aps may play a role in controlling its activity by altering its stability, something that could be important for regulating PP-InsP(5) during development.
