description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II general transcription initiation factor activity. Predicted to be involved in snRNA transcription and transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nuclear body. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; egg cylinder; genitourinary system; limb; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SNAPC2 (small nuclear RNA activating complex polypeptide 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele show complete embryonic lethality before implantation with abnormal morula morphology, increased cell death, and failure of blastocyst formation.
