RTEL1 - regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1 Gene
Also Known as NHL; RTEL; DKCA4; DKCB5; PFBMFT3; C20orf41
Species: Homo sapiens
About RTEL1
This gene has 21 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 6.4), appendix (RPKM 4.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a DNA helicase which functions in the stability, protection and elongation of telomeres and interacts with proteins in the shelterin complex known to protect telomeres during DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dyskeratosis congenita and Hoyerall-Hreidarsson syndrome. Read-through transcription of this gene into the neighboring downstream gene, which encodes tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 6b, generates a non-coding transcript. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
