RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in pre-mRNA branch site protein p14 (SF3B14) and similar proteins
This subfamily corresponds to the RRM of SF3B14 (also termed p14), a 14 kDa protein subunit of SF3B which is a multiprotein complex that is an integral part of the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) and the U11/U12 di-snRNP. SF3B is essential for the accurate excision of introns from pre-messenger RNA and has been involved in the recognition of the pre-mRNA's branch site within the major and minor spliceosomes. SF3B14 associates directly with another SF3B subunit called SF3B155. It is also present in both U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomes and may contribute to branch site positioning in both the major and minor spliceosome. Moreover, SF3B14 interacts directly with the pre-mRNA branch adenosine early in spliceosome assembly and within the fully assembled spliceosome. SF3B14 contains one well conserved RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain).
