Gene:
Hypothetical protein MGC13098
Gene ID:
192262
Symbol:
Species:
1000
Description:
Similarity to a related locus suggests that this gene encodes a subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. This subunit exists as a heterodimer with another polymerase subunit; together they form a core subassembly unit of the polymerase. Two similar genes are located downstream of this locus. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
