SNRNP25 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein U11/U12 subunit 25

Gene ID: 79622, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: C16orf33

Summary

Two types of spliceosomes catalyze splicing of pre-mRNAs. The major U2-type spliceosome is found in all eukaryotes and removes U2-type introns, which represent more than 99% of pre-mRNA introns. The minor U12-type spliceosome is found in some eukaryotes and removes U12-type introns, which are rare and have distinct splice consensus signals. The U12-type spliceosome consists of several small nuclear RNAs and associated proteins. This gene encodes a 25K protein that is a component of the U12-type spliceosome.
