GTF3C2

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

GTF3C2 is a gene that encodes a subunit of the RNA polymerase III transcription factor complex. This complex plays a crucial role in the transcription of genes that encode small RNAs, including 5S rRNA and tRNA.

Function[edit | edit source]

The GTF3C2 gene is part of the General Transcription Factor III complex, which is involved in the transcription of genes that encode small RNAs. The GTF3C2 subunit is thought to play a role in the assembly and stability of the complex.

Clinical significance[edit | edit source]

Mutations in the GTF3C2 gene have been associated with a variety of diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of this gene in disease development and progression.
