Summary: Predicted to enable nicotinamide-nucleotide adenylyltransferase activity and nicotinate-nucleotide adenylyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in NAD biosynthetic process. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis 9 and spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, sensorineural hearing loss, intellectual developmental disorder, and Leber congenital amaurosis. Orthologous to several human genes including NMNAT1 (nicotinamide nucleotide adenylyltransferase 1) and NMNAT3 (nicotinamide nucleotide adenylyltransferase 3).
