    Summary
    Predicted to enable malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (NADP+) activity. Involved in glucose homeostasis. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; adult heart; ganglia; gut section; and nephrocyte. Orthologous to several human genes including ME3 (malic enzyme 3).
