Gene information for DDX41 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51428
Official gene symbolDDX41
Full nameDEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 41
Aliases,ABS,MGC8828,
Gene summaryDEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure, such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of the DEAD box protein family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a member of this family. The function of this member has not been determined. Based on studies in Drosophila, the abstrakt gene is widely required during post-transcriptional gene expression. [provided by RefSeq]
