CTU2 - cytosolic thiouridylase subunit 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as MFRG; NCS2; UPF0432; C16orf84

Gene ID: 348180 | Gene type: protein coding

About CTU2

Cytogenetic location: 16q24.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:88,706,503-88,715,396 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 3.9), brain (RPKM 2.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which is involved in the post-transcriptional modification of transfer RNAs (tRNAs). The encoded protein plays a role in thiolation of uridine residue present at the wobble position in a subset of tRNAs, resulting in enhanced codon reading accuracy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
