About TNRC6A

Cytogenetic location: 16p12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:24,610,205-24,826,218 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 205 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 11.5), endometrium (RPKM 10.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the trinucleotide repeat containing 6 protein family. The protein functions in post-transcriptional gene silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) and MicroRNA pathways. The protein associates with messenger RNAs and Argonaute proteins in cytoplasmic bodies known as GW-bodies or P-bodies. Inhibiting expression of this gene delocalizes Other GW-body proteins and impairs RNAi and microRNA-induced gene silencing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
