Gene Symbol NHP2
Synonyms DKCB2 | NHP2P | NOLA2
Gene Description NHP2, NHP2 ribonucleoprotein, is a component of the telomerase ribonucleoprotein complex, which plays a role in telomere maintenance and the maturation of ribosomal RNA and small nuclear RNA (PMID: 37440454, PMID: 18523010), and is potentially involved in DNA damage response at telomeres (PMID: 33595114). Increased expression of Nhp2 has been identified in gastric cancer (PMID: 22935986) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 22935986, PMID: 34129943) while decreased expression has been identified in endometrial cancer (PMID: 35054812).
