Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable RNA binding activity and splicing factor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to act upstream of or within RNA splicing and mRNA processing. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of U12-type spliceosomal complex; U2 snRNP; and U2-type precatalytic spliceosome. Is expressed in embryo; midbrain ventricular layer; olfactory cortex ventricular layer; orbito-sphenoid; and telencephalon ventricular layer. Orthologous to human SF3B5 (splicing factor 3b subunit 5).
