InnateDB Gene IDBG-100408 (PTBP2)
Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function RNA-binding protein which binds to intronic polypyrimidine tracts and mediates negative regulation of exons splicing. May antagonize in a tissue-specific manner the ability of NOVA1 to activate exon selection. In addition to its function in pre-mRNA splicing, plays also a role in the regulation of translation. Isoform 5 has a reduced affinity for RNA. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11003644, ECO:0000269PubMed:12667457}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Mainly expressed in brain although also detected in other tissues like heart and skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are specifically expressed in neuronal tissues. Isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in non-neuronal tissues. Isoform 5 and isoform 6 are truncated forms expressed in non- neuronal tissues. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11003644, ECO:0000269PubMed:12213192}.
