sce:IMP3
Genes: 33
SGD DescriptionComponent of the SSU processome; SSU processome is required for pre-18S rRNA processing, essential protein that interacts with Mpp10p and mediates interactions of Imp4p and Mpp10p with U3 snoRNA
PomBase DescriptionU3 snoRNP-associated protein Imp3 (predicted)
AspGD DescriptionOrtholog(s) have snoRNA binding activity, role in rRNA processing, ribosomal small subunit biogenesis and Mpp10 complex, small-subunit processome localization
