| UniProt functional annotation for P36629 | |||
| UniProt code: P36629. |
| Organism: | Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843) (Fission yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Taphrinomycotina; Schizosaccharomycetes; Schizosaccharomycetales; Schizosaccharomycetaceae; Schizosaccharomyces. | |
| Function: | Necessary for the splicing of pre-mRNA. The SF1-U2AF59-U2AF23 complex has a role in the recognition of the branch site (5'-UACUAAC- 3'), the pyrimidine tract and the 3'-splice site at the 3'-end of introns. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12374752}. | |
| Subunit: | Forms a heterodimer with the U2AF small subunit. Can also form a homodimer. U2AF large subunit (U2AF59), U2AF small subunit (U2AF23) and SF1 (bpb1) interact to form a complex required for complex A formation. Interacts with wat1/pop3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11686295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12374752}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10759889}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the splicing factor SR family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
