NCIt definition : Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor subunit 5 (227 aa, 26 kDa) is encoded
by the human NUDT21 gene. This protein is involved in the recruitment of multiprotein
complexes to the cleavage and polyadenylation signals (pA signals) on the 3'-end of
pre-mRNA.;
NCIt note : Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor subunit 5 is missing the conserved
metal-binding residues in the NUDIX motif; therefore, it does not have hydrolase activity.
