Summary
NBDY (negative regulator of P-body association, HGNC:50713) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xp11.21, encoding Negative regulator of P-body association (A0A0U1RRE5). Promotes dispersal of P-body components and is likely to play a role in the mRNA decapping process.
Involved in negative regulation of cytoplasmic mRNA processing body assembly and nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process. Located in P-body.
