RNASEH2C ribonuclease H2 subunit C

Gene ID: 84153, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AGS3; AYP1

Summary

This gene encodes a ribonuclease H subunit that can cleave ribonucleotides from RNA:DNA duplexes. Mutations in this gene cause Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome-3, a disease that causes severe neurologic dysfunction. A pseudogene for this gene has been identified on chromosome Y, near the sex determining region Y (SRY) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
