(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1660
Official gene symbolDHX9
Full nameDEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) box polypeptide 9
Aliases,DDX9,LKP,NDH2,NDHII,RHA,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the DEAH-containing family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein is an enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent unwinding of double-stranded RNA and DNA-RNA complexes. This protein localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and functions as a transcriptional regulator. This protein may also be involved in the expression and nuclear export of retroviral RNAs. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 11 and 13.
