Gene: TSEN54
Alternate names for this Gene: PCH2A|PCH4|PCH5|SEN54L|sen54
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a subunit of the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex, which catalyzes the removal of introns from precursor tRNAs. The complex is also implicated in pre-mRNA 3-prime end processing. Mutations in this gene result in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 17
Location in Chromosome : 17q25.1
Description of this Gene: tRNA splicing endonuclease subunit 54
Type of Gene: protein-coding

PMID 27570394 2016 The more common and less severe PCH 2 phenotype is caused by homozygosity for the common missense mutation A307S, while the severe phenotype seen in type 4 and 5 is caused by compound heterozygosity of the A307S mutation along with a nonsense or splice site mutation.
