Summary
Enables U6 snRNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to virus; positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by p53 class mediator; and tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway. Located in annulate lamellae; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Part of nuclear pore. Biomarker of colorectal cancer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
