Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of apoptotic process; regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; and spliceosomal complex assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within RNA splicing; apoptotic process; and mRNA processing. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of spliceosomal complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; lung; sensory organ; and testis. Orthologous to human RBM5 (RNA binding motif protein 5).
