Enables disordered domain specific binding activity and purine nucleotide binding activity. Contributes to ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase activity, thioredoxin disulfide as acceptor. Involved in deoxyribonucleotide biosynthetic process and protein heterotetramerization. Part of ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human RRM1 (ribonucleotide reductase catalytic subunit M1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
