Summary

This gene represents a snoRNA host gene that produces a non-coding RNA. Increased expression or amplification of this locus is associated with cancer progression and metastasis. This transcript regulates expression of genes involved in differentiation. It may act a molecular sponge for microRNAs. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed.

Summary

"This gene encodes a member of the DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) subfamily of proteins, part of the DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein binds to N6-methyladenosine, a common modified RNA nucleotide that is enriched in the stop codons and 3' UTRs of eukaryotic messenger RNAs. Binding of proteins to this modified nucleotide may regulate mRNA translation and stability. This gene may be associated with susceptibility to pancreatic cancer in human patients, and knockdown of this gene resulted in reduced proliferation in a human liver cancer cell line.
