|
Function |
RNA-binding protein. Might be involved in alternative splicing regulation through an interaction with G-quartet RNA structure. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19136466}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Nucleus speckle {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19136466}. Note=When splicing is inhibited, accumulates in enlarged speckles.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Brain (most abundant in hippocampus and amygdala), placenta and lung.
