DERA (Deoxyribose-Phosphate Aldolase) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with DERA include Phlebotomus Fever. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Immune System. GO annotations related to DERA include lyase activity and deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase activity. Catalyzes a reversible aldol reaction between acetaldehyde and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to generate 2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphate. Participates in stress granule (SG) assembly. May allow ATP production from extracellular deoxyinosine in conditions of energy deprivation.
