{"symbol":"REXO2","synonyms":["REX2","RFN","SFN","CGI-114"],"name":"RNA exonuclease 2","description":"This gene encodes a 3\u0027-to-5\u0027 exonuclease specific for small (primarily 5 nucleotides or less in length) single-stranded RNA and DNA oligomers. This protein may have a role in DNA repair, replication, and recombination, and in RNA processing and degradation. It may also be involved in resistance of human cells to UV-C-induced cell death through its role in the DNA repair process.
