Sign in to saveAlso known as PAPD6, zinc finger CCHC-type containing 6, TENT3B, ZCCHC6, terminal uridylyl transferase 7
Terminal uridylyltransferase 7 (TUT7), also known as "zinc finger, CCHC domain containing 6", is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ZCCHC6 gene located on chromosome 9. The ZCCHC6 protein mediates the terminal uridylation of RNA transcripts with short poly-A tails and is involved in mRNA and microRNA degradation
