  ID: XRN2_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=5'-3' exoribonuclease 2; EC=3.1.13.-; AltName: Full=DHM1-like protein; Short=DHP protein;
FUNCTION: Possesses 5'->3' exoribonuclease activity (By similarity). May promote the termination of transcription by RNA polymerase II. During transcription termination, cleavage at the polyadenylation site liberates a 5' fragment which is subsequently processed to form the mature mRNA and a 3' fragment which remains attached to the elongating polymerase. The processive degradation of this 3' fragment by this protein may promote termination of transcription.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Exonucleolytic cleavage in the 5'- to 3'- direction to yield nucleoside 5'-phosphates.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus, nucleolus.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, peripheral blood leukocytes, heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, and pancreas. Isoform 2 is expressed predominantly in peripheral blood leukocytes.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the 5'-3' exonuclease family. XRN2/RAT1 subfamily.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 CCHC-type zinc finger.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAR24369.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=73; Sequence=BAA90934.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
