UniProt code: Q9BZC1.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).

Function: RNA-binding protein implicated in the regulation of pre-mRNA alternative splicing. Mediates exon inclusion and/or exclusion in pre- mRNA that are subject to tissue-specific and developmentally regulated alternative splicing. Specifically activates exon 5 inclusion of cardiac isoforms of TNNT2 during heart remodeling at the juvenile to adult transition. Promotes exclusion of both the smooth muscle (SM) and non-muscle (NM) exons in actinin pre-mRNAs. Activates the splicing of MAPT/Tau exon 10. Binds to muscle-specific splicing enhancer (MSE) intronic sites flanking the alternative exon 5 of TNNT2 pre-mRNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11158314, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12649496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14973222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15009664, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15894795}.
