The SR (serine/arginine-rich) family contains a number of phosphoproteins that function as essential and alternative splicing factors. The SR family of proteins is characterized by the presence of a ribonucleoprotein (RNP)-type RNA binding motif and a carboxyl-terminal arginine-serine-rich (RS) domain. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the SR family and functions as an essential splicing factor in vitro. This gene is thought to be an expressed PR264/SC35 retropseudogene.
