POLR3K - RNA polymerase III subunit K Gene
Also Known as C11; HLD21; My010; RPC10; RPC11; RPC12.5; C11-RNP3
Species: Homo sapiens
About POLR3K
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 13.5), appendix (RPKM 11.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a small essential subunit of RNA polymerase III, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing transfer and small ribosomal RNAs in eukaryotes. The carboxy-terminal domain of this subunit shares a high degree of sequence similarity to the carboxy-terminal domain of an RNA polymerase II elongation factor. This similarity in sequence is supported by functional studies showing that this subunit is required for proper pausing and termination during transcription. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 13 and 17.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
