Description

SCNM1 (Sodium Channel Modifier 1) is a protein-coding gene involved in RNA splicing, specifically in the regulation of alternative splicing of pre-mRNA. It encodes a zinc finger protein that interacts with spliceosomal components. The gene is ubiquitously expressed and has been implicated in neurological disorders and cancer.

Protein Summary

SCNM1 encodes a 244-amino acid protein containing a C2H2-type zinc finger domain. It localizes to the nucleus and interacts with U2 snRNP components to modulate splice site selection. The protein is highly conserved in vertebrates and plays a critical role in neuronal splicing programs.
