Summary

The product encoded by this gene is a member of a RNA-binding protein family and possesses nucleolytic activity against cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL) target cells. It has been suggested that this protein may be involved in the induction of apoptosis as it preferentially recognizes poly(A) homopolymers and induces DNA fragmentation in CTL targets. The major granule-associated species is a 15-kDa protein that is thought to be derived from the carboxyl terminus of the 40-kDa product by proteolytic processing. Alternative splicing resulting in different isoforms has been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]

Forensic Context

A study in human fetal cortical tissue demonstrated that prenatal alcohol exposure induces widespread alternative splicing changes, including the identification of previously unknown isoforms of the RNA-binding protein TIA1, which is involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress response and cell death control [Kawasawa et al. DOI:10.1016/J.Alcohol.2017.05.001].
