gene geneOn this page
Summary
SSU72L6 (SSU72 like 6, HGNC:43627) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 7q31.33, encoding RNA polymerase II subunit A C-terminal domain phosphatase SSU72 like protein 6 (A0A1W2PR75). Protein phosphatase that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II.
Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II CTD heptapeptide repeat phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in termination of RNA polymerase II transcription. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor complex.
