DDX21 | Nucleolar RNA helicase 2; RNA helicase that acts as a sensor of the transcriptional status of both RNA polymerase (Pol) I and II: promotes ribosomal RNA (rRNA) processing and transcription from polymerase II (Pol II). Binds various RNAs, such as rRNAs, snoRNAs, 7SK and, at lower extent, mRNAs. In the nucleolus, localizes to rDNA locus, where it directly binds rRNAs and snoRNAs, and promotes rRNA transcription, processing and modification. Required for rRNA 2'-O-methylation, possibly by promoting the recruitment of late-acting snoRNAs SNORD56 and SNORD58 with pre- ribosomal complexes. I [...] (783 aa) | ||||
MIDN | Midnolin; Facilitates ubiquitin-independent proteasomal degradation of polycomb protein CBX4. Plays a role in inhibiting the activity of glucokinase GCK and both glucose-induced and basal insulin secretion. (468 aa) |
