About NCBP2

Cytogenetic location: 3q29 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:196,935,406-196,942,528 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 230 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 25.7), thyroid (RPKM 22.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The product of this gene is a component of the nuclear cap-binding protein complex (CBC), which binds to the monomethylated 5' cap of nascent pre-mRNA in the nucleoplasm. The encoded protein has an RNP domain commonly found in RNA binding proteins, and contains the cap-binding activity. The CBC promotes pre-mRNA splicing, 3'-end processing, RNA nuclear export, and nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
