Disease relevance of SFRS2IP

  • IgM immunoreactivity to Sip1 C-ter was significantly higher in patients with Behçet's disease and in patients with primary vasculitis than in the other groups of patients and healthy subjects tested (P < 10-4 by Mann-Whitney test) [1].
 

High impact information on SFRS2IP

  • Deficiency in the formation of both A and B splicing complexes in the Sip1-depleted nuclear extract indicates an important role of Sip1 in spliceosome assembly [2].
  • The DNA fragment library of the SRrp129 clone was then used in the yeast two-hybrid system to identify the 100-amino acid domain that interacts with the CTD of RNA polymerase II [3].
  • We screened a cDNA library from human microvascular endothelial cells with serum IgG from two patients with Behçet's disease and isolated a reactive clone specific to the carboxy-terminal subunit of Sip1 (Sip1 C-ter) [1].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SFRS2IP

  • ELISA detected IgG specific to Sip1 C-ter in sera from 11/56 (20%) patients with Behçet's disease, IgM in 23/56 (41%) and IgA in 9/54 (17%) [1].
