{"symbol":"CTU2","synonyms":["UPF0432","C16ORF84","NCS2","MFRG"],"name":"cytosolic thiouridylase subunit 2 homolog (S. pombe)","description":"This gene encodes a protein which is involved in the post-transcriptional modification of transfer RNAs (tRNAs). The encoded protein plays a role in thiolation of uridine residue present at the wobble position in a subset of tRNAs, resulting in enhanced codon reading accuracy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
