DESCRIPTION

Also known as SYMPK_HUMAN, SYMPK, SPK. Scaffold protein that functions as a component of a multimolecular complex involved in histone mRNA 3'-end processing. Specific component of the tight junction (TJ) plaque, but might not be an exclusively junctional component. May have a house-keeping rule. Is involved in pre-mRNA polyadenylation. Enhances SSU72 phosphatase activity. Found in a heat-sensitive complex at least composed of several cleavage and polyadenylation specific and cleavage stimulation factors (PubMed:16230528). Interacts with CPSF2, CPSF3 and CSTF2 (PubMed:10669729, PubMed:18688255). Interacts (via N-terminus) with HSF1; this interaction is direct and occurs upon heat shock (PubMed:14707147). Interacts with SSU72 (PubMed:20861839, PubMed:23070812).
