This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins containing a ribonucleoprotein (RNP)-type RNA binding motif and a carboxyl-terminal arginine-serine-rich (RS) domain. The encoded protein functions as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013],function:Invovlved in pre-mRNA alternative splicing.,PTM:Phosphorylated.,similarity:Belongs to the splicing factor SR family.,similarity:Contains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain.,tissue specificity:Strongly expressed in pancreas, spleen and prostate. Weakly expressed in lung, liver and thymus.,
