Sym | Symplekin (Sym) encodes a large protein that contains many protein interaction sites, and acts as a scaffold for protein complexes in the nucleus. It functions in RNA 3' end formation for both polyadenyated mRNAs and non-polyadenylated histone mRNAs. In some cells it also localizes to the cell cortex, especially the tricellular junctions of some epithelia. (1165 aa) |
