Gene: LSM4

Alternate names for this Gene: GRP|YER112W

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the LSm family of RNA-binding proteins. LSm proteins form stable heteromers that bind specifically to the 3'-terminal oligo(U) tract of U6 snRNA and may play a role in pre-mRNA splicing by mediating U4/U6 snRNP formation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19p13.11

Description of this Gene: LSM4 homolog, U6 small nuclear RNA and mRNA degradation associated

Type of Gene: protein-coding
