{"symbol":"LSM3","synonyms":["SMX4","YLR438C","USS2"],"name":"LSM3 homolog, U6 small nuclear RNA associated (S. cerevisiae)","description":"Sm-like proteins were identified in a variety of organisms based on sequence homology with the Sm protein family (see SNRPD2; MIM 601061). Sm-like proteins contain the Sm sequence motif, which consists of 2 regions separated by a linker of variable length that folds as a loop. The Sm-like proteins are thought to form a stable heteromer present in tri-snRNP particles, which are important for pre-mRNA splicing.[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2004]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":27258,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/27258","proteins":[{"symbol":"LSM3_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/LSM3_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[]}
