Description

SNAPC4 encodes the 190 kDa subunit of the small nuclear RNA (snRNA) activating protein complex (SNAPc), which is essential for transcription of snRNA genes by RNA polymerase II and III. The SNAPc complex binds to the proximal sequence element (PSE) of snRNA gene promoters. SNAPC4 is required for snRNA gene expression and plays a role in RNA processing and spliceosome assembly.

Protein Summary

SNAPC4 is a 190 kDa subunit of the snRNA-activating protein complex. It contains a Myb-like DNA-binding domain and is involved in recognizing the proximal sequence element of snRNA promoters. The protein localizes to the nucleus and is essential for transcription of U1, U2, U4, and U5 snRNA genes.
