Function
- role in the packaging of pre-mRNA into hnRNP particles, transport of poly(A) mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm & may modulate splice site selection
- Arg-194, Arg-206 & Arg-225 are dimethylated, probably to asymmetric dimethylarginine
- identified in the spliceosome C complex
Structure
contains 2 RRM domain (RNA recognition motif)s
Compartment
- nucleus, cytoplasm
- shuttles continuously between the nucleus & the cytoplasm along with mRNA
- component of ribonucleosomes
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=3
