Most malignant tissues showed moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear positivity. Several cancers of renal, liver, testis and prostate cancers as well as a few malignant gliomas were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
RNASEH2B (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
AGS2, DLEU8, FLJ11712
Description
Ribonuclease H2, subunit B (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
RNase H2 is composed of a single catalytic subunit (A) and two non-catalytic subunits (B and C) and specifically degrades the RNA of RNA:DNA hybrids. The protein encoded by this gene is the non-catalytic B subunit of RNase H2, which is thought to play a role in DNA replication. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 2 (AGS2). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
