TSEN54 (gene)
TRNA splicing endonuclease subunit 54 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TSEN54 gene. [5]
Function
This gene encodes a subunit of the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex, which catalyzes the removal of introns from precursor tRNAs. The complex is also implicated in pre-mRNA 3-prime end processing.
Clinical significance
Mutations in this gene result in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2.
