FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

Also known as SPF45_HUMAN, RBM17, SPF45. Splice factor that binds to the single-stranded 3'AG at the exon/intron border and promotes its utilization in the second catalytic step. Involved in the regulation of alternative splicing and the utilization of cryptic splice sites. Promotes the utilization of a cryptic splice site created by the beta-110 mutation in the HBB gene. The resulting frameshift leads to sickle cell anemia. Binds SXL. Associates with the spliceosome. Interacts with SF3B1, SF1 and U2AF2.
