SAP 49 Polyclonal Antibody

function:Subunit of the splicing factor SF3B required for 'A' complex assembly formed by the stable binding of U2 snRNP to the branchpoint sequence (BPS) in pre-mRNA. Sequence independent binding of SF3A/SF3B complex upstream of the branch site is essential, it may anchor U2 snRNP to the pre-mRNA. May also be involved in the assembly of the 'E' complex. SF3B4 has been found in complex 'B' and 'C' as well. Belongs also to the minor U12-dependent spliceosome, which is involved in the splicing of rare class of nuclear pre-mRNA intron.,similarity:Belongs to the SF3B4 family.,similarity:Contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains.,subunit:Component of splicing factor SF3B which is composed of at least eight subunits; SF3B1/SAP155/SF3B155, SF3B2/SAP145/SF3B145, SF3B3/SAP130/SF3B130, SF3B4/SAP49/SF3B49, SF3B14A, PHF5A/SF3B14B, SF3B10 and SF3B125. SF3B associates with the splicing factor SF3A and a 12S RNA unit to form the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins complex (U2 snRNP). SF3B4 interacts directly with SF3B2.,
