Summary

This is a conserved gene that produces a long non-coding RNA that maintains cell proliferation in embryonic stem cells. This RNA can bind to and negatively regulate the activity of multiple cellular RNAs and microRNAs, including cyclin G associated kinase and ELAV like RNA binding protein 1.

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.
