gene: rsp-8 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome and positive regulation of mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be part of spliceosomal complex. Expressed in head and tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in macular degeneration. Is an ortholog of human TRA2A (transformer 2 alpha homolog) and TRA2B (transformer 2 beta homolog).
