GeneID: 306



Names

Common Name: NOL12 Type: Gene
Chromosome: 22 (NC_000022.11) Locus: NM_024313.3 (NOL12)
HUGO Symbol: NOL12 Full Name: nucleolar protein 12
Exons: 6 Introns: 5

Description:
This gene encodes an RNA binding protein with diverse cellular roles, including cell proliferation, apoptosis and ribosome biogenesis. Key player in the regulation of RNA metabolism and DNA damage response. Localised in both cytoplasmic and nucleoplasmic compartments. Genetic variance in NOL12 gene associated with acute chest syndrome (ACS) in patients with sickle cell disease. ACS is a form of acute lung injury caused by vaso-occlusion within the pulmonary microvasculature. Etiologies either trigger vaso-occlusion (e.g., infection, asthma, hypoventilation) or are a result of vaso-occlusion (e.g., bone marrow and fat emboli).
