POLR1D Gene
The POLR1D gene encodes a subunit of RNA polymerase I and III complexes, crucial for synthesising ribosomal RNA and small RNAs, respectively. Mutations in the POLR1D gene are linked to Treacher Collins syndrome, affecting craniofacial development. The POLR1D gene’s role is essential for proper cellular function and protein synthesis.
