High impact information on SF3B4

  • The yeast genome also encodes a homolog of human SAP 49, a protein that interacts strongly with both SAP 145 and pre-mRNA, underscoring the conservation of U2 snRNP proteins that function in spliceosome assembly [1].
  • The mammalian spliceosome-associated protein, SAP 49, is associated specifically with U2 snRNP and is the most efficiently UV cross-linked protein in the spliceosomal complexes A, B, and C. We show here that SAP 49 cross-links to a region in the pre-mRNA immediately upstream of the branchpoint sequence in the prespliceosomal complex A [2].
  • The depletion of either SAP145 or SAP49 leads to checkpoint-mediated G(2) cell cycle arrest through the induction of nuclear foci containing gamma-H2AX and BRCA1 [3].
  • Regulation at step 1 is correlated with decreased cross-linking of the factor U2AF65, whereas regulation at step 2 is correlated with enhanced cross-linking of the factor SAP49 [4].
  • We have isolated the mouse homologue of human spliceosome-associated protein SAP49, mSAP49. mSAP49 contains two RNA recognition motifs (RRM) in the N terminus of the predicted amino acid sequence, and a highly basic C terminus rich in glycine/proline. mSAP49 displayed a plastic of expression in cardiac development [5].
 

Biological context of SF3B4

 

Anatomical context of SF3B4

  • Thus, these results suggest that cellular expression of Vpr may block spliceosome assembly by interfering with the function of the SAP145-SAP49 complex in host cells [6].
 

Associations of SF3B4 with chemical compounds

  • Mutational analysis demonstrated that the GS domain of the receptor and the conserved proline-rich domain of SAP49 were required for the interaction [7].
