Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and DNA-directed 5'-3' RNA polymerase activity. Predicted to contribute to RNA polymerase I activity; RNA polymerase II activity; and RNA polymerase III activity. Predicted to be involved in tRNA transcription by RNA polymerase III; transcription by RNA polymerase II; and transcription elongation by RNA polymerase I. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RPAP3/R2TP/prefoldin-like complex and nuclear DNA-directed RNA polymerase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; embryo mesenchyme; maxillary process; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human POLR2E (RNA polymerase II, I and III subunit E).
