SON - SON DNA and RNA binding protein Gene
Also Known as SON3; BASS1; DBP-5; NREBP; TOKIMS; C21orf50
Species: Homo sapiens
About SON
This gene has 22 transcripts (splice variants), 216 orthologues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 43.7), lymph node (RPKM 33.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein that contains multiple simple repeats. The encoded protein binds RNA and promotes pre-mRNA splicing, particularly of transcripts with poor splice sites. The protein also recognizes a specific DNA sequence found in the human hepatitis B virus (HBV) and represses HBV core promoter activity. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
