Splicing factor that specifically promotes exon-inclusion during alternative splicing (PubMed:26876937). Interaction with YTHDC1, a RNA-binding protein that recognizes and binds N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs, promotes recruitment of SRSF3 to its mRNA-binding elements adjacent to m6A sites, leading to exon-inclusion during alternative splicing (PubMed:26876937). Also functions as export adapter involved in mRNA nuclear export such as of histone H2A (PubMed:11336712, PubMed:18364396). Binds mRNA which is thought to be transferred to the NXF1-NXT1 heterodimer for export (TAP/NXF1 pathway); enhances NXF1-NXT1 RNA-binding activity (PubMed:11336712, PubMed:18364396). RNA-binding is semi-sequence specific (PubMed:17036044).
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4˚C for up to one week.
