GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
TOPORS (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
LUN, RP31, TP53BPL
Description
Topoisomerase I binding, arginine/serine-rich, E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a nuclear protein which is serine and arginine rich, and contains a RING-type zinc finger domain. It is highly expressed in the testis, and functions as an ubiquitin-protein E3 ligase. Mutations in this gene are associated with retinitis pigmentosa type 31. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, encoding different isoforms, have been observed for this locus. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
