PRPF40B wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human PRPF40B wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 12q13.12 and is approximately 76 kb in length. This allele, which encodes pre-mRNA-processing factor 40 homolog B protein, may play a role in mRNA splicing. Mutations in the gene may be associated with myelodysplastic syndrome, melanoma and colon carcinoma.
