Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; ATP-dependent protein binding activity; and RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell growth involved in cardiac muscle cell development; positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of vascular associated smooth muscle cell proliferation. Located in nuclear matrix. Part of protein-containing complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human DDX39B (DExD-box helicase 39B).

Description: 320 RNA samples isolated from 11 organs (adrenal gland, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, spleen, thymus, and testes or uterus) from both sexes of Fischer 344 rats across four developmental stages (2-, 6-, 21-, and 104-weeks-old)

What's a GeneRIF?

These findings suggest that UAP56 is a regulator of VSMC proliferation and identify UAP56 as a target for preventing vascular proliferative disease.
Title: UAP56 is an important mediator of angiotensin II/platelet derived growth factor induced vascular smooth muscle cell DNA synthesis and proliferation.
To determine whether the rat possesses an H2-D orthologue, we sequenced a cosmid clone that contains rat Bat1 and an adjacent class I gene, RT1.46 (l).
Title: Does the rat have an H2-D orthologue next to Bat1?

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
