SMG6 - SMG6 nonsense mediated mRNA decay factor Gene
Also Known as EST1A; SMG-6; hEST1A; C17orf31; hSMG5/7a
Species: Homo sapiens
About SMG6
This gene has 20 transcripts (splice variants) and 198 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 7.3), testis (RPKM 5.9) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a component of the Telomerase ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the replication and maintenance of chromosome ends. The encoded protein also plays a role in the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway, providing the Endonuclease activity near the premature translation termination codon that is needed to initiate NMD. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
