Nucleoside-diphosphate kinases are enzymes that catalyze the exchange of phosphate groups between different nucleotides. The overall effect of NDKs is to transfer a phosphate group from a nucleoside triphosphate to a nucleoside diphosphate. Starting with ATP and UDP, the activity of NDK produces ADP and UTP.
