Helz2 - helicase with zinc finger 2, transcriptional coactivator

Predicted to enable RNA binding activity; RNA helicase activity; and nuclear receptor coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, nonsense-mediated decay and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; respiratory system; and telencephalon. Orthologous to human HELZ2 (helicase with zinc finger 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
