Entrez Gene ID

Antigen Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of an mRNA-decapping complex required for degradation of mRNAs, both in normal mRNA turnover, and in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). It removes the 7-methyl guanine cap structure from mRNA, prior to its degradation from the 5 end. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

Function

RNA binding; exoribonuclease activity, producing 5-phosphomonoesters; m7G(5)pppN diphosphatase activity; manganese ion binding; protein binding;

Synonyms

DCP2; decapping mRNA 2; NUDT20; m7GpppN-mRNA hydrolase; hDpc; mRNA-decapping enzyme 2; DCP2 decapping enzyme homolog; nudix (nucleoside diphosphate linked moiety X)-type motif 20;
