Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 6651

About SON

Cytogenetic location: 21q22.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 21:33,543,038-33,577,481 (from NCBI)

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]
