Description

SSU72L3 is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1 at 1p36.33. It encodes a protein that shares similarity with SSU72, a phosphatase involved in RNA polymerase II transcription regulation. The gene is part of the SSU72-like family, though its specific functional roles are still under investigation. According to NCBI, the gene is annotated as SSU72 like RNA polymerase II CTD phosphatase subunit. Expression data from the Human Protein Atlas indicate low to moderate expression in various tissues, with notable presence in the thyroid and adrenal glands. The protein is predicted to localize to the nucleus and may participate in transcription-related processes, but detailed functional studies are limited.

Protein Summary

The SSU72L3 protein is a putative phosphatase that may dephosphorylate the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, thereby influencing transcription dynamics. Its exact substrate specificity and biological role remain to be fully characterized. The protein is predicted to be nuclear and may interact with transcription complexes. UniProt lists it as a member of the SSU72-like family, but no experimental validation of its catalytic activity has been published to date.
