Official Full Name: SMG1 nonsense mediated mRNA decay associated PI3K related kinase
Also known as: ATX; LIP; 61E3.4
This gene encodes a protein involved in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) as part of the mRNA surveillance complex. This protein has kinase activity and is thought to function in NMD by phosphorylating a regulator of the nonsense transcript 1 protein. Another splice transcript variant has been described, but its full-length nature has not been determined.
