RNASE4 - ribonuclease A family member 4 Gene
Also Known as RAB1; RNS4
Species: Homo sapiens
About RNASE4
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 286 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 129.2), fat (RPKM 38.7) and 12 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the pancreatic ribonuclease family. It plays an important role in mRNA cleavage and has marked specificity towards the 3' side of uridine nucleotides. Alternative splicing results in four transcript variants encoding the same protein. This gene and the gene that encodes angiogenin share promoters and 5' exons. Each gene splices to a unique downstream exon that contains its complete coding region. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
