Gene information for DDX42 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID11325
Official gene symbolDDX42
Full nameDEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 42
Aliases,FLJ43179,RHELP,RNAHP,SF3b125,
Gene summaryThis 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]
