Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Involved in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis. Seems to both prevent the formation of 7-pterins and accelerate the formation of quinonoid-BH2 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.Regulates the dimerization of homeodomain protein HNF-1- alpha and enhances its transcriptional activity. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11980910}.
