Gene:
gem (nuclear organelle) associated protein 7
Gene ID:
209678
Symbol:
GEMIN7
Species:
1000
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the core SMN complex, which is required for pre-mRNA splicing in the nucleus. The encoded protein is found in the nucleoplasm, in nuclear gems (Gemini of Cajal bodies), and in the cytoplasm. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
