Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5; Arginine methyltransferase that can both catalyze the formation of omega-N monomethylarginine (MMA) and symmetrical dimethylarginine (sDMA) (By similarity). Specifically mediates the symmetrical dimethylation of arginine residues in the small nuclear ribonucleoproteins SmD1 and SmD3. Required for arginine symmetrical dimethylation of piwi family proteins, piwi, aub and AGO3, during germline development. Required during oogenesis for pole cell formation in the pathway controlled by oskar (osk) and for abdominal segments during early embryogenesis. [...]

Protein valois; Involved in specific localization of cytoplasmic proteins during the formation of pole plasm. Required for synthesis and/or stability of oskar protein (osk) and localization of tudor (tud) in both the nuage and posterior pole of the oocyte. Required for normal posterior localization of osk in later stages of oogenesis and for posterior localization of the vasa (vas) protein during the entire process of pole plasm assembly. May act by regulating the complex that contains the arginine N-methyltransferase csul.

Small ribonucleoprotein particle protein SmD2 (SmD2) encodes an RNA binding protein that forms a heterodimeric sub-complex with the product of SmD1. They function as part of the heteroheptameric ring complex Sm core, which is involved in the formation of spliceosomal small nuclear RNPs (U1, U2, U4 and U5), which together catalyze pre-mRNA splicing.

Survival motor neuron protein; The SMN complex plays an essential role in spliceosomal snRNP assembly in the cytoplasm, is required for pre-mRNA splicing in the nucleus and acts as a chaperone that discriminates target and non- target RNAs of Sm proteins. Required for normal expression of spliceosomal snRNAs and for U12 intron splicing. Required in cholinergic neurons, but not in motor neurons, to ensure correct splicing and proper levels of stas mRNA and normal neurotransmitter release by motor neurons. However, Smn is required in motor neurons, but not in cholinergic neurons, for nor [...]

Protein Gemin2; The SMN complex plays an essential role in spliceosomal snRNP assembly in the cytoplasm, is required for pre-mRNA splicing in the nucleus and acts as a chaperone that discriminates target and non- target RNAs of Sm proteins.

Small ribonucleoprotein particle protein SmD3 (SmD3) encodes an RNA binding protein that forms a heterodimeric sub-complex with the product of SmB. They function as part of the heteroheptameric ring complex Sm core, which is involved in the formation of spliceosomal small nuclear RNPs (U1, U2, U4 and U5), which together catalyze pre-mRNA splicing. The product of SmD3 also has a function in germline specification, as it is required for localization of the product of osk to the posterior pole of the oocyte.

Sabbat, isoform A.

Lsm10 (Lsm10) encodes a core component of the U7 snRNP complex, which functions in 3' end processing of the non-polyadenylated, replication-dependent histone mRNAs. The product of Lsm10 is part of the heptameric Sm ring complex that binds directly to U7 snRNA. It replaces the protein encoded by SmD1 in the canonical heptameric Sm protein ring that binds spliceosomal snRNAs.

Small ribonucleoprotein particle protein SmF (SmF) encodes an RNA binding protein that functions as part of a heteroheptameric ring structure called the Sm core. This complex binds to spliceosomal small nuclear RNAs (e.g. U1, U2, U4 and U5) and helps to carry out pre-mRNA splicing. It also forms a heterotrimeric sub-complex with the products of SmE and SNRPG.
