About POLR2K

Cytogenetic location: 8q22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:100,150,636-100,154,003 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 138 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in adrenal (RPKM 36.2), thyroid (RPKM 30.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes one of the smallest subunits of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. This subunit is shared by the Other two DNA-directed RNA polymerases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
