protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Gene data

POLR2D

Name: RNA polymerase II subunit D
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: HSRBP4, HSRPB4, RBP4, RPB16, RPB4

This gene encodes the fourth largest subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. In yeast, this polymerase subunit is associated with the polymerase under suboptimal growth conditions and may have a stress protective role. A sequence for a ribosomal pseudogene is contained within the 3' untranslated region of the transcript from this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
