EXPRESSION
Rna function
  • long nuclear-retained regulatory RNA (nrRNA), having a role in Alternative splicing regulation, by modulating the levels of active serine/arginine (SR) proteins
  • expressed in numerous tissues and is highly abundant in neurons
  • may regulates synapse formation by modulating the expression of genes involved in synapse formation and/or maintenance
  • serine-rich proteins and MALAT1 facilitate the association of several of the pre-mRNA processing factors on a chromatin locus
  • SRSF1 along with MALAT1 could influence the recruitment of splicing factors to nuclear speckles
  • MALAT1 influenced the speckle association of SRSF1 in a phosphorylation-independent manner
  • role of MALAT1 in cellular transformation
  • MALAT1 directly interacted with SP1 and LTBP3 promoter to increase expression of LTBP3 gene
