Polr2k polymerase (RNA) II (DNA directed) polypeptide K [ Mus musculus (house mouse) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 17749)
Symbol: Polr2k
Full name: polymerase (RNA) II (DNA directed) polypeptide K
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: ABC10-alpha; MafY; Mt1a; RPABC4; RPB10alpha; RPB12; RPB7.0
Summary: Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; DNA-directed 5'-3' RNA polymerase activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase I complex; RNA polymerase II, core complex; and RNA polymerase III complex. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; nose; submandibular gland primordium; thymus primordium; and tooth. Orthologous to human POLR2K (RNA polymerase II, I and III subunit K). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
