Also known as PPP1R25, DEAD-box helicase 31

DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 31, also known as DDX31, is a human gene.

Gene data

DDX31
Name
DEAD-box helicase 31
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
PPP1R25

DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of this DEAD box protein family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a member of this family. The function of this member has not been determined. Alternative splicing of this gene generates multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
