Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 2 is a
protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residue (biochemistry), residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within organisms, including Enzyme catalysis, catalysing metab ...
that in humans is encoded by the ''SRSF2''
gene
In biology, the word gene has two meanings. The Mendelian gene is a basic unit of heredity. The molecular gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is transcribed to produce a functional RNA. There are two types of molecular genes: protei ...
.
MDS-associated splicing factor SRSF2 affects the expression of Class III and Class IV isoforms and perturbs granulopoiesis and SRSF2 P95H promotes Class IV splicing by binding to key ESE sequences in CSF3R exon 17, and that SRSF2, when mutated, contributes to dysgranulopoiesis.
Interactions
SFRS2 has been shown to
interact with
CDC5L
Cell division cycle 5-like protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''CDC5L'' gene.
Function
The protein encoded by this gene shares a significant similarity with '' Schizosaccharomyces pombe'' cdc5 gene product, which is a cell ...
and
ASF/SF2
Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SRSF1) also known as alternative splicing factor 1 (ASF1), pre-mRNA-splicing factor SF2 (SF2) or ASF1/SF2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''SRSF1'' gene. ASF/SF2 is an essential sequence specif ...
