Disease
DKC1_HUMAN Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome;Dyskeratosis congenita. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Reduced rRNA pseudouridine levels in cells from patients (PubMed:25219674).[1] The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
DKC1_HUMAN Catalytic subunit of H/ACA small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (H/ACA snoRNP) complex, which catalyzes pseudouridylation of rRNA (PubMed:25219674, PubMed:32554502). This involves the isomerization of uridine such that the ribose is subsequently attached to C5, instead of the normal N1 (PubMed:25219674). Each rRNA can contain up to 100 pseudouridine ('psi') residues, which may serve to stabilize the conformation of rRNAs. Required for ribosome biogenesis and telomere maintenance (PubMed:19179534, PubMed:25219674). Also required for correct processing or intranuclear trafficking of TERC, the RNA component of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) holoenzyme (PubMed:19179534).[2] [3] [4] Promotes cell to cell and cell to substratum adhesion, increases the cell proliferation rate and leads to cytokeratin hyper-expression.[5]
