Description
LUC7L encodes a protein that is a component of the U1 snRNP spliceosome complex, involved in pre-mRNA splicing. The protein contains a C2H2-type zinc finger domain and is implicated in RNA processing and alternative splicing regulation. LUC7L is evolutionarily conserved and plays a role in cell cycle progression and DNA damage response.

Protein Summary
The LUC7L protein (UniProt Q9NQ29) is 370 amino acids long and contains a C2H2-type zinc finger domain. It localizes to the nucleus and is a component of the U1 snRNP, essential for 5' splice site recognition. The protein interacts with other spliceosomal factors and is involved in alternative splicing regulation. LUC7L is ubiquitously expressed with higher levels in hematopoietic tissues.
