ELAC2: Lysates

The protein encoded by the ELAC2 gene has a C-terminal domain with tRNA 3′ processing endoribonuclease activity,which catalyzes the removal of the 3' trailer from precursor tRNAs. The protein also interacts with activatedSmad family member 2 (Smad2) and its nuclear partner forkhead box H1 (also known as FAST-1), and reduced expressioncan suppress transforming growth factor-beta induced growth arrest. Mutations in this gene result in an increased riskof prostate cancer. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. (providedby RefSeq)
