DHX29 - DExH-box helicase 29 Gene
Also Known as DDX29
Species: Homo sapiens
About DHX29
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues and 18 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 12.7), prostate (RPKM 10.7) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) subfamily of proteins, part of the DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein functions in translation initiation, and is specifically required for ribosomal scanning across stable mRNA secondary structures during initiation codon selection. This protein may also play a role in sensing virally derived cytosolic nucleic acids. Knockdown of this gene results in reduced protein translation and impaired proliferation of Cancer cells.
