Human Gene BUD23 (ENST00000265758.7) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens BUD23 rRNA methyltransferase and ribosome maturation factor (BUD23), transcript variant 4, non-coding RNA. (from RefSeq NR_045512) RefSeq Summary (NM_017528): This gene encodes a protein containing a nuclear localization signal and an S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding motif typical of methyltransferases, suggesting that the encoded protein may act on DNA methylation. This gene is deleted in Williams syndrome, a multisystem developmental disorder caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found.

Gencode Transcript: ENST00000265758.7 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000071462.13 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr7:73,683,597-73,698,212 Size: 14,616 Total Exon Count: 12 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr7:73,683,626-73,697,886 Size: 14,261 Coding Exon Count: 12
ID:WBS22_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Uncharacterized methyltransferase WBSCR22; EC=2.1.1.-; AltName: Full=Williams-Beuren syndrome chromosomal region 22 protein; FUNCTION: Methyltransferase that may act on DNA. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Potential). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Strongly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle and kidney. Also expressed in spleen, liver, lung and testis. DISEASE: Note=WBSCR22 is located in the Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) critical region. WBS results from a hemizygous deletion of several genes on chromosome 7q11.23, thought to arise as a consequence of unequal crossing over between highly homologous low-copy repeat sequences flanking the deleted region. Haploinsufficiency of WBSCR22 may be the cause of certain cardiovascular and musculo-skeletal abnormalities observed in the disease. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAG17249.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=194, 203;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
