Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of spliceosomal complex and spliceosomal snRNP complex. Expressed in gonad. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Prader-Willi syndrome; cerebrocostomandibular syndrome; and mixed connective tissue disease. Is an ortholog of human SNRPN (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N) and SNURF (SNRPN upstream open reading frame).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
