CPSF7 explained

Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor subunit 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CPSF7 gene.^{[1] [2]}

Function

CPSF7, also known as CFIm59, is the cleavage factor of two closely associated protein complexes in the 3' untranslated region of a newly synthesized pre-messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule used in gene transcription. ^[3] CPSF7 is one of three Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factors (CPSF), the other two being CFIm25 (or CPSF5/NUDT21) and CFIm68 (or CPSF6).
