RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in vertebrate serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 3 (SRSF3) This subgroup corresponds to the RRM of SRSF3, also termed pre-mRNA-splicing factor SRp20, a splicing regulatory serine/arginine (SR) protein that modulates alternative splicing by interacting with RNA cis-elements in a concentration- and cell differentiation-dependent manner. It is also involved in termination of transcription, alternative RNA polyadenylation, RNA export, and protein translation. SRSF3 is critical for cell proliferation and tumor induction and maintenance. SRSF3 can shuttle between the nucleus and cytoplasm. It contains a single N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), and a C-terminal RS domain rich in serine-arginine dipeptides. The RRM domain is involved in RNA binding, and the RS domain has been implicated in protein shuttling and protein-protein interactions.
