Function
Phosphorylates deoxyguanosine and deoxyadenosine in the mitochondrial matrix, with the highest efficiency for deoxyguanosine (PubMed:8692979, PubMed:8706825, PubMed:11687801, PubMed:17073823, PubMed:23043144). In non-replicating cells, where cytosolic dNTP synthesis is down-regulated, mtDNA synthesis depends solely on DGUOK and TK2. Phosphorylates certain nucleoside analogs (By similarity). Widely used as target of antiviral and chemotherapeutic agents. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9QX60, ECO:0000269... (Source: Uniprot)
