RNASEH2B Gene Information

HGNC symbol
RNASEH2B 
Aliases
AGS2; DLEU8; FLJ11712 
Common name
ribonuclease H2 subunit B 
Entrez Id
79621
Description
RNase H2 is composed of a single catalytic subunit (A) and two non-catalytic subunits (B and C) and specifically degrades the RNA of RNA:DNA hybrids. The protein encoded by this gene is the non-catalytic B subunit of RNase H2, which is thought to play a role in DNA replication. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 2 (AGS2). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008].
