Gene: SNU13

Alternate names for this Gene: 15.5K|FA-1|FA1|NHP2L1|NHPX|OTK27|SNRNP15-5|SPAG12|SSFA1

Gene Summary: Originally named because of its sequence similarity to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae NHP2 (non-histone protein 2), this protein appears to be a highly conserved nuclear protein that is a component of the [U4/U6.U5] tri-snRNP. It binds to the 5' stem-loop of U4 snRNA. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.2

Description of this Gene: small nuclear ribonucleoprotein 13

Type of Gene: protein-coding
