POLR3C

Chr 1

RNA polymerase III subunit C

Also known as: C82, RPC3, RPC62

Enables single-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of innate immune response and positive regulation of interferon-beta production. Located in nucleoplasm. Part of RNA polymerase III complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
