About DHX36

Cytogenetic location: 3q25.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:154,272,546-154,324,487 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 203 orthologues and 18 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 24.2), thyroid (RPKM 15.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the DEAH-box family of RNA-dependent NTPases which are named after the conserved amino acid sequence Asp-Glu-Ala-His in motif II. The protein encoded by this gene has been shown to enhance the deadenylation and decay of mRNAs with 3'-UTR AU-rich elements (ARE-mRNA). The protein has also been shown to resolve into single strands the highly stable tetramolecular DNA configuration (G4) that can form spontaneously in guanine-rich regions of DNA. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
