PRPF6

protein-coding

pre-mRNA processing factor 6, the group of U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene appears to be involved in pre-mRNA splicing, possibly acting as a bridging factor between U5 and U4/U6 snRNPs in formation of the spliceosome. The encoded protein also can bind androgen receptor, providing a link between transcriptional activation and splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_012469.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Involved in pre-mRNA splicing as component of the U4/U6- U5 tri-snRNP complex, one of the building blocks of the spliceosome (PubMed:28781166, PubMed:21549338). Enhances dihydrotestosterone-induced transactivation activity of AR, as well as dexamethasone-induced transactivation activity of NR3C1, but does not affect estrogen-induced transactivation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12039962, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21549338, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28781166}.;
