Summary
ARMC7 (armadillo repeat containing 7, HGNC:26168) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q25.1, encoding Armadillo repeat-containing protein 7 (Q9H6L4). As a component of the minor spliceosome, involved in the splicing of U12-type introns in pre-mRNAs. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 97.3% of cancer cell lines).
Predicted to be involved in RNA splicing and mRNA processing. Predicted to be part of spliceosomal complex.
