Function |
Required for pre-mRNA splicing and for exon-junction complex (EJC) assembly. Hinders EIF4A3 from non-specifically binding RNA and escorts it to the splicing machinery to promote EJC assembly on mature mRNAs. Through its role in EJC assembly, required for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22959432, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22961380, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23236153}.

Subcellular Location |
Nucleus. Nucleus speckle. Note=Concentrates around speckles, which are sites of pre-mRNA synthesis and processing, where it colocalizes with EJC core proteins.
