    SANS is essential for the release and transfer of the three snrnps from the Cajal body to the nuclear spot



    Human Usher syndrome (USH) is the most common hereditary deafness and blindness


    Need to further study how SANS protein promotes the development of blindness

    Professor Uwe Wolfham said: "Our goal is to clarify the molecular basis of the degeneration of the photoreceptor cells of the eye in the case of Usher syndrome


    It is not clear how SANS promotes the pathogenesis of the eye


    SANS regulates splicing of pre-mRNA

    Splicing is an important process from coding genes to protein biosynthesis


    "We were surprised by our discovery that SANS is not only a component of cilia that is transported to the cell surface, but it is also active in the nucleus and can regulate the splicing process there," Wolfrum said, citing their published results in nucleic acid research


    The deletion of SANS and the pathogenic mutation of the USH1G/SANS gene prevented the correct assembly and sequential activation of the spliceosome
