Gene: PUS1

Alternate names for this Gene: MLASA1

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a pseudouridine synthase that converts uridine to pseudouridine once it has been incorporated into an RNA molecule. The encoded enzyme may play an essential role in tRNA function and in stabilizing the secondary and tertiary structure of many RNAs. A mutation in this gene has been linked to mitochondrial myopathy and sideroblastic anemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 12

Location in Chromosome : 12q24.33

Description of this Gene: pseudouridine synthase 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
