NHP2 - NHP2 ribonucleoprotein Gene
Also Known as DKCB2; NHP2P; NOLA2
Species: Homo sapiens
About NHP2
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in esophagus (RPKM 36.2), brain (RPKM 32.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is a member of the H/ACA snoRNPs (small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins) gene family. snoRNPs are involved in various aspects of rRNA processing and modification and have been classified into two families: C/D and H/ACA. The H/ACA snoRNPs also include the DKC1, NOLA1 and NOLA3 proteins. These four H/ACA snoRNP proteins localize to the dense fibrillar components of nucleoli and to coiled (Cajal) bodies in the nucleus. Both 18S rRNA production and rRNA pseudouridylation are impaired if any one of the four proteins is depleted. The four H/ACA snoRNP proteins are also components of the Telomerase complex. This gene encodes a protein related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nhp2p. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
