Informazioni su geni e proteine
Riepilogo UniProt
Catalytic subunit of H/ACA small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (H/ACA snoRNP) complex, which catalyzes pseudouridylation of rRNA (PubMed:25219674). This involves the isomerization of uridine such that the ribose is subsequently attached to C5, instead of the normal N1 (PubMed:25219674). Each rRNA can contain up to 100 pseudouridine ('psi') residues, which may serve to stabilize the conformation of rRNAs. Required for ribosome biogenesis and telomere maintenance (PubMed:19179534, PubMed:25219674). Also required for correct processing or intranuclear trafficking of TERC, the RNA component of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) holoenzyme (PubMed:19179534).
Sommario di Entrez
This gene functions in two distinct complexes. It plays an active role in telomerase stabilization and maintenance, as well as recognition of snoRNAs containing H/ACA sequences which provides stability during biogenesis and assembly into H/ACA small nucleolar RNA ribonucleoproteins (snoRNPs). This gene is highly conserved and widely expressed, and may play additional roles in nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling, DNA damage response, and cell adhesion. Mutations have been associated with X-linked dyskeratosis congenita. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Specificità del tessuto
Ubiquitously expressed.
Coinvolgimento nella malattia
Dyskeratosis congenita, X-linked: A rare, progressive bone marrow failure syndrome characterized by the triad of reticulated skin hyperpigmentation, nail dystrophy, and mucosal leukoplakia. Early mortality is often associated with bone marrow failure, infections, fatal pulmonary complications, or malignancy.
Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome: A clinically severe variant of dyskeratosis congenita that is characterized by multisystem involvement, early onset in utero, and often results in death in childhood. Affected individuals show intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, cerebellar hypoplasia, delayed development, and bone marrow failure resulting in immunodeficiency.
Somiglianze di sequenza
Belongs to the pseudouridine synthase TruB family.
