[5][6] The gem-associated proteins are those found in the gems of Cajal bodies.

GEMIN6 is part of a large macromolecular complex, the SMN localized to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus, that plays a role in the cytoplasmic assembly of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs).

[supplied by OMIM][6] Gem-associated protein 6 has been shown to interact with gem-associated protein 7.
