Y32H12A.2 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of mammalian THOC5, a subunit of the THO complex involved in mRNP biogenesis as part of transcription elongation, mRNA maturation, and export.
Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA export from nucleus and positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription, elongation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of THO complex part of transcription export complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast carcinoma. Is an ortholog of human THOC5 (THO complex subunit 5).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
