Summary | This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that function in removing the 5' cap from mRNAs, which is a step in regulated mRNA decay. This protein localizes to cytoplasmic foci which are the site of mRNA breakdown and turnover. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]. |
