POLR2J RNA polymerase II subunit J
Gene ID: 5439, updated on 19-Sep-2024Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: RPB11; RPB11A; RPB11m; hRPB14; POLR2J1
Summary
This gene encodes a subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. The product of this gene exists as a heterodimer with another polymerase subunit; together they form a core subassembly unit of the polymerase. Two similar genes are located nearby on chromosome 7q22.1 and a pseudogene is found on chromosome 7p13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
