SKIC3

Chr 5AR

SKI3 subunit of superkiller complex

Also known as: KIAA0372, Ski3, THES, TTC37

The SKIC3 protein is a component of the SKI complex that assists the RNA-degrading exosome during mRNA decay and quality-control pathways, catalyzing mRNA extraction from ribosomal complexes for degradation. Mutations cause trichohepatoenteric syndrome 1, which involves hair, liver, and gastrointestinal manifestations. This condition follows autosomal recessive inheritance.

The Badonyi & Marsh prediction model was trained exclusively on dominant disease genes. Predictions are not reliable for genes with autosomal recessive inheritance and are shown at reduced opacity for reference only.
