-  Comments and Description Text from UniProtKB
  ID: LSM10_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=U7 snRNA-associated Sm-like protein LSm10;
FUNCTION: Appears to function in the U7 snRNP complex that is involved in histone 3'-end processing. Increases U7 snRNA levels but not histone 3'-end pre-mRNA processing activity, when overexpressed. Required for cell cycle progression from G1 to S phases. Binds specifically to U7 snRNA. Binds to the downstream cleavage product (DCP) of histone pre-mRNA in a U7 snRNP dependent manner.
SUBUNIT: Component of the heptameric ring U7 snRNP complex, or U7 Sm protein core complex, at least composed of LSM10, LSM11, SNRPB, SNRPD3, SNRPE, SNRPF, SNRPG and U7 snRNA. Formation of the U7 snRNP is an ATP-dependent process mediated by a specialized SMN complex containing at least the Sm protein core complex and additionally, the U7-specific LSM10 and LSM11 proteins. Interacts with CLNS1A and SMN.
INTERACTION: P62310:LSM3; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-373268, EBI-348239;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
PTM: Not methylated. Methylation is not necessary for interaction with SMN.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the snRNP Sm proteins family.

ModBase Predicted Comparative 3D Structure on Q969L4
FrontTopSide
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.
