Rrp8 - ribosomal RNA processing 8

Predicted to enable methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose starvation; intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by p53 class mediator; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within chromatin organization; methylation; and rRNA processing. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of chromatin silencing complex. Predicted to be active in nucleolus and rDNA heterochromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and immune system. Orthologous to human RRP8 (ribosomal RNA processing 8).
