Summary
Predicted to enable RNA helicase activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in response to alkaloid and response to toxic substance. Predicted to be located in nuclear speck. Predicted to be part of U12-type spliceosomal complex and U2-type post-mRNA release spliceosomal complex. Orthologous to human DHX15 (DEAH-box helicase 15).

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.
