    basic FUNCTION
  • having nucleic acid binding activity
  • acting by promoting mRNA export from the nucleus (Lindtner 2006)
  • required for efficient mRNA export (Zolotukhin 2009)
  • RBM15 is required to preserve hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) quiescence during stress but not steady-state hematopoiesis
  • requirement for RBM15 in stress hematopoiesis, suggesting that RBM15-dependent processes may converge with those affected by aging
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • part of the NXF1 pathway (Lindtner 2006)
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
  • recognizes RNA transport element (RTE) directly and specifically in vitro and stimulates export and expression of RTE-containing reporter mRNAs (Lindtner 2006)
  • small molecule
    protein
  • interaction with the Epstein-Barr virus mRNA export factor EB2 (Hiriart 2005)
  • RBM15-MKL1 fusion gene is a constitutive activator of SRF and target gene expression, and deregulated activator of serum response factor-dependent gene expression contributes to the malignancy) (Descot 2008)
  • interaction of RBM15B and RBM15 with NXF1 via their C-terminal regions (Uranishi 2009)
  • binding specifically to DDX19B and facilitating its direct contact with mRNA (Zolotukhin 2009)
  • RBM15-MRTFA interacts with the SETD1B histone H3-Lys4 methyltransferase via a SPOC domain that is required for cytokine-independent proliferation
  • RBM15, a subunit of the m6A methyltransferase complex, interacts with SMARCC1 mRNA and mediates SMARCC1 mRNA degradation through the mRNA methylation machinery
