Gene ID:
209032
Symbol:
PAPOLA
Species:
1000
Description:
Polymerase that creates the 3' poly(A) tail of mRNA's. Also required for the endoribonucleolytic cleavage reaction at some polyadenylylation sites. May acquire specificity through interaction with a cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) at its C-terminus.
