RNA-binding protein that function as a pre-mRNA splicing factor. Plays a critical role in both constitutive and enhancer-dependent splicing by mediating protein-protein interactions and protein-RNA interactions required for accurate 3-splice site selection. Acts by enhancing the binding of U2AF2 to weak pyrimidine tracts. Also participates in the regulation of alternative pre-mRNA splicing. Activates exon 5 skipping of PTPRC during T-cell activation, an event reversed by GFI1. Binds to RNA at the AG dinucleotide at the 3-splice site. Shows a preference for AGC or AGA. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-202 from human U2AF1L4, fused to GST-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
