Background: This gene encodes a protein with a conserved RNA-binding motif. The protein is found predominantly in the nucleus, although it is also present in the cytoplasm. It is preferentially associated with mRNAs produced by splicing, including both nuclear mRNAs and newly exported cytoplasmic mRNAs. It is thought that the protein remains associated with spliced mRNAs as a tag to indicate where introns had been present, thus coupling pre- and post-mRNA splicing events. Previously, it was thought that two genes encode this protein, RBM8A and RBM8B, it is now thought that the RBM8B locus is a pseudogene. There are two alternate translation start codons with this gene, which result in two forms of the protein. An allele mutation and a low-frequency noncoding single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in this gene cause thrombocytopenia-absent radius (TAR) syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013],

Function: Function: Part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance. Involved in nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) of mRNAs containing premature stop codons. Associates preferentially with mRNAs produced by splicing. Does not interact with pre-mRNAs, introns, or mRNAs produced from intronless cDNAs. Associates with both nuclear mRNAs and newly exported cytoplasmic mRNAs. Complex with MAGOH is a component of the nonsense mediated decay (NMD) pathway
Sequence Caution: Chimeric cDNA. A chimeric cDNA originating from chromosomes 1 and 5
Similarity: Contains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain
Subunit: Found in a mRNA splicing-dependent exon junction complex (EJC) with DEK, NCBP1, NCBP2, NXF1, RBM8A, RNPS1, RENT2, RENT3A, RENT3B, SRRM1 and THOC4. Found in a post-splicing complex with NXF1, RBM8A, RENT1, RENT2, RENT3A, RENT3B and RNPS1. Interacts with
