About SNRPC

Cytogenetic location: 6p21.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:34,757,505-34,773,857 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants) and 183 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 34.9), bone marrow (RPKM 32.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes one of the specific protein components of the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particle required for the formation of the spliceosome. The encoded protein participates in the processing of nuclear precursor messenger RNA splicing. snRNP particles are attacked by autoantibodies frequently produced by patients with connective tissue diseases. The genome contains several pseudogenes of this functional gene. Alternative splicing results in a non-coding transcript variant.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
