Molecular Genetics

Null et al. (2017): "A splice acceptor variant at 51,267,548 bp in the RNA Polymerase 2 Associated Protein (RPAP2) gene was the most likely causal variant in the [AH2] haplotype. RPAP2 is an essential component of the RNA polymerase 2 holoenzyme necessary for transcription of snRNA species. Experiments with mouse knockouts also found a deficiency of homozygotes, suggesting that RPAP2 is necessary for embryonic development."
