Description
Description
The little elongation complex (LEC) is a distinct eleven_nineteen lysine_rich leukemia family RNAPII elongation factors (ELL)-containing complex that shares some structural and functional properties with super elongation complexes (SECs). This complex is required for the expression of RNA polymerase II-transcribed small nuclear RNA (snRNA) genes. (Adapted from FBrf0222548, FBrf0217100 and PMID:22895430).
