Open AccessLoss of function mutations in GEMIN5 cause a neurodevelopmental disorder
GEMIN5, an RNA-binding protein is essential for assembly of the survival motor neuron (SMN) protein complex and facilitates the formation of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), the building blocks of sp...

SMN regulates GEMIN5 expression and acts as a modifier of GEMIN5-mediated neurodegeneration
GEMIN5 is essential for core assembly of small nuclear Ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), the building blocks of spliceosome formation. Loss-of-function mutations in GEMIN5 lead to a neurodevelopmental syndrome among p...
