Function

Catalyzes the transfer of a gamma-phosphoryl group from a nucleoside triphosphate, mainly ATP, to a nucleoside diphosphate via a ping-pong mechanism involving a phosphohistidine intermediate, therefore contributing to the nucleoside triphosphate homeostasis. Also functions as a histidine protein kinase by transferring the phosphoryl group from the phosphohistidine intermediate to a histidine residue in target proteins (By similarity). Phosphorylates the GNB1 subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins at 'His-266', generating a high-energy phosphate group that promotes GTP formation and enables receptor-independent activation of heterotrimeric G proteins (By similarity). Also phosphorylates KCNN4 at 'His-358', leading to activation of its intermediate conductance calcium-activated potassium channel activity, Ca(2+) influx, and subsequent activation of B and T cells. Additionally involved in transcriptional regulation through direct DNA binding and chromatin remodeling. In this context, functions as a single-stranded DNA binding protein that binds and stabilizes the G-quadruplex (G4) structures within the nuclease hypersensitive element (NHE) III(1) region of the MYC gene promoter, facilitating recruitment of additional single-strand DNA binding proteins and activation of MYC transcription. G4 DNA-binding activity is independent of its nucleoside diphosphate kinase function and recognizes both folded and unfolded G4 structures (By similarity). With NME1, may regulate acetyl-CoA (AcCoA) usage between histone acetylation and fatty acid synthesis by targeting AcCoA release at ATP-rich, HAT-associated chromatin regions (By similarity). Also negatively regulates Rho activity by interacting with AKAP13/LBC (By similarity)
