{"symbol":"SNRPB2","synonyms":["Msl1","U2B\u0027\u0027"],"name":"small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide B","description":"The protein encoded by this gene associates with stem loop IV of U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U2 snRNP) in the presence of snRNP-A\u0027. The encoded protein may play a role in pre-mRNA splicing. Autoantibodies from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus frequently recognize epitopes on the encoded protein. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
