SNRPN upstream reading frame protein (SNURF)

Structure

belongs to the SNURF family

Compartment

nucleus

Expression

• expressed in heart, skeletal muscle & lymphoblasts (at protein level)
• expressed in brain, pancreas, heart, liver, lung, kidney & skeletal muscle

Genetics

• encoded on a bicistronic transcript that encodes two proteins, SNRPN & SNURF
• in addition to the primary 1.6-kb bicistronic SNURF-SNRPN transcript, SNURF-only transcript is also detected

More general terms

• nuclear protein

Additional terms

• RING finger protein 4; E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF4; small nuclear ring finger protein; protein SNURF (RNF4, SNURF, RES4-26)
