    Summary
    This gene encodes a protein with endoribonuclease activity that binds polyuridine-enriched single-stranded RNA. This gene was initially characterized based on its high expression in placenta but was mischaracterized as a serine protease. In mouse, this gene promotes tolerance to self-antigens by regulating B cell activation-induced cell death (AICD). The protein may be useful as a tumor marker. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
