SNRPC, Official Symbol SNRPCprovided by HGNC Official Full Name small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide Cprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:11157 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000124562 MIM:603522; AllianceGenome:HGNC:11157 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as U1C; Yhc1 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] Expression Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 34.9), bone marrow (RPKM 32.7) and 25 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
