About POLR2I

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:36,113,709-36,114,875 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 192 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 23.3), brain (RPKM 15.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. This subunit, in combination with two other polymerase subunits, forms the DNA binding domain of the polymerase, a groove in which the DNA template is transcribed into RNA. The product of this gene has two zinc finger motifs with conserved cysteines and the subunit does possess zinc binding activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
