nomenclature changes

05/29/2017 Human name has changed for Entrez Gene: 92856. From IMP4 homolog, U3 small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein to IMP4, U3 small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein


summary

The protein encoded by this gene, along with IMP3 and MPP10, is part of the 60-80S U3 small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (U3 snoRNP) complex.

This complex is necessary for the early cleavage steps of pre-18S ribosomal RNA processing. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
