Human Gene DHX9 (ENST00000367549.4) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens DExH-box helicase 9 (DHX9), transcript variant 2, non-coding RNA. (from RefSeq NR_033302)
RefSeq Summary (NM_001357): This gene encodes a member of the DEAH-containing family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein is an enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent unwinding of double-stranded RNA and DNA-RNA complexes. This protein localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and functions as a transcriptional regulator. This protein may also be involved in the expression and nuclear export of retroviral RNAs. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 11 and 13.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010].

  ID: DHX9_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=ATP-dependent RNA helicase A; Short=RHA; EC=3.6.4.13; AltName: Full=DEAH box protein 9; AltName: Full=Leukophysin; Short=LKP; AltName: Full=Nuclear DNA helicase II; Short=NDH II;
FUNCTION: Unwinds double-stranded DNA and RNA in a 3' to 5' direction. Alteration of secondary structure may subsequently influence interactions with proteins or other nucleic acids. Functions as a transcriptional activator. Component of the CRD- mediated complex that promotes MYC mRNA stability. Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + H(2)O = ADP + phosphate.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with ZIC2 (By similarity). Component of the coding region determinant (CRD)-mediated complex, composed of DHX9, HNRNPU, IGF2BP1, SYNCRIP and YBX1. Identified in a mRNP complex, at least composed of DHX9, DDX3X, ELAVL1, HNRNPU, IGF2BP1, ILF3, PABPC1, PCBP2, PTBP2, STAU1, STAU2, SYNCRIP and YBX1. Identified in a mRNP granule complex, at least composed of ACTB, ACTN4, DHX9, ERG, HNRNPA1, HNRNPA2B1, HNRNPAB, HNRNPD, HNRNPL, HNRNPR, HNRNPU, HSPA1, HSPA8, IGF2BP1, ILF2, ILF3, NCBP1, NCL, PABPC1, PABPC4, PABPN1, RPLP0, RPS3, RPS3A, RPS4X, RPS8, RPS9, SYNCRIP, TROVE2, YBX1 and untranslated mRNAs. Interacts with IGF2BP1. Binds MBD2, HRMT1L2/PRMT1, and RELA. May act to directly link BRCA1, CREBBP or SMN1 and the RNA polymerase II complex. Can also interact with XRCC5 and with TOP2A in an RNA dependent manner; these interactions may be indirect. Interaction with TOP2A is promoted by UBC9. Interacts with histone H2AFX and this requires phosphorylation of H2AFX on 'Ser-139'. Interacts with LARP6.
INTERACTION: P19525:EIF2AK2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-352022, EBI-640775; Q9UBU9:NXF1; NbExp=7; IntAct=EBI-352022, EBI-398874; Q99873:PRMT1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-352022, EBI-78738; Q04206:RELA; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-352022, EBI-73886;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus, nucleolus. Cytoplasm. Note=Localized in cytoplasmic mRNP granules containing untranslated mRNAs. Can shuttle between nucleus and cytoplasm.
DOMAIN: The MTAD domain mediates interaction with the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme. The NTD domain is necessary and sufficient for nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling and interaction with HRMT1L2 and SMN1.
PTM: Methylated. HRMT1L2 mediated methylation of undefined Arg residues in the NTD is required for nuclear localization.
PTM: May be phosphorylated by PRKDC/XRCC7. Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DEAH subfamily.
SIMILARITY: Contains 2 DRBM (double-stranded RNA-binding) domains.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
