cofactor:Binds 1 nickel ion per monomer. Can also use other divalent metal cations.,function:Has aci-reductone dioxygenase (ARD) activity and can function in the 5-methylthioadenosine (MTA) methionine salvage pathway. Down-regulates cell migration mediated by MMP14. Necessary for hepatitis C virus replication in an otherwise non-permissive cell line.,pathway:Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-methionine biosynthesis via salvage pathway; L-methionine from (S)-methyl-5-thio-alpha-D-ribose 1-phosphate: step 5/6.,similarity:Belongs to the acireductone dioxygenase (ARD) family.,subunit:Interacts with MMP14.,tissue specificity:Detected in heart, colon, lung, stomach, brain, spleen, liver, skeletal muscle and kidney.,
Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Cell membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein ; Cytoplasmic side . Localizes to the plasma membrane when complexed to MMP14. .
Detected in heart, colon, lung, stomach, brain, spleen, liver, skeletal muscle and kidney.
