关于 DDX42

功能概要

该基因编码 Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD) 盒蛋白家族的成员。该蛋白质家族的成员是推定的 RNA 解旋酶，并且涉及许多涉及 RNA 二级结构改变的细胞过程，例如翻译起始、核和线粒体剪接以及核糖体和剪接体组装。该家族的成员被认为参与胚胎发生、精子发生以及细胞生长和分裂。已为该基因鉴定出编码相同蛋白质的两个转录物变体。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

This gene encodes a member of the Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD) box protein family. Members of this protein family are putative RNA helicases, and are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Members of this family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
