Cancer tissues showed weak to moderate nuclear staining in a few cases combined with cytoplasmic positivity. A majority of renal cancers, gliomas and lymphomas were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
POLR2C (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
RPB3
Description
Polymerase (RNA) II (DNA directed) polypeptide C, 33kDa (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes the third largest subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. The product of this gene contains a cysteine rich region and exists as a heterodimer with another polymerase subunit, POLR2J. These two subunits form a core subassembly unit of the polymerase. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 21. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
