Gene information for NELFE (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7936
Official gene symbolNELFE
Full nameRD RNA binding protein
Aliases,D6S45,NELF-E,RD,RDBP,RDP,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is part of a complex termed negative elongation factor (NELF) which represses RNA polymerase II transcript elongation. This protein bears similarity to nuclear RNA-binding proteins; however, it has not been demonstrated that this protein binds RNA. The protein contains a tract of alternating basic and acidic residues, largely arginine (R) and aspartic acid (D). The gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq]
