About SMG6

Cytogenetic location: 17p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:2,059,839-2,303,785 (from NCBI)

This gene has 20 transcripts (splice variants) and 198 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 7.3), testis (RPKM 5.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a component of the Telomerase ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the replication and maintenance of chromosome ends. The encoded protein also plays a role in the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway, providing the Endonuclease activity near the premature translation termination codon that is needed to initiate NMD. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
