UniProt functional annotation for Q96I25

UniProt code: Q96I25.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: 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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12015979, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17589525}.
 
Subunit: Binds SXL. Associates with the spliceosome. Interacts with SF3B1, SF1 and U2AF2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17589525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9731529}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9731529}.
