Gene information for U2AF1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7307
Official gene symbolU2AF1
Full nameU2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 1
Aliases,DKFZp313J1712,FP793,RN,RNU2AF1,U2AF35,U2AFBP,
Gene summaryThis gene belongs to the splicing factor SR family of genes. U2 auxiliary factor, comprising a large and a small subunit, is a non-snRNP protein required for the binding of U2 snRNP to the pre-mRNA branch site. This gene encodes the small subunit which plays a critical role in both constitutive and enhancer-dependent RNA splicing by directly mediating interactions between the large subunit and proteins bound to the enhancers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq]
