NCBI Gene Info:Encodes a Serine/arginine-rich (SR) protein RSZp22. SR proteins are splicing regulators that share a modular structure consisting of one or two N-terminal RNA recognition motif domains and a C-terminal RS-rich domain. RSZp22 is located in the nucleolus. It is a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein and an interacting partner to the Arabidopsis U1-70K. Barta et al (2010) have proposed a nomenclature for Serine/Arginine-Rich Protein Splicing Factors (SR proteins): Plant Cell. 2010, 22:2926. |
