Summary: This gene encodes one of the proteins found in the survival of motor neuron (SMN) complex, which consists of the SMN protein and several gemin proteins. The SMN complex is localized to a subnuclear compartment called gems (gemini of coiled bodies) and is required for assembly of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNP) and for pre-mRNA splicing. This protein interacts directly with the SMN protein and it is required for formation of the SMN complex. Disruption of this gene in mouse resulted in impaired snRNP assembly, and motor neuron degeneration. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

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.
