May be a part of a network of regulatory mechanisms that enable SR proteins to control RNA splicing and can lead to redistribution of SR proteins from speckles to a diffuse nucleoplasmic distribution. Acts as a suppressor of hepatic gluconeogenesis and glucose output by repressing PPARGC1A transcriptional activity on gluconeogenic genes through its phosphorylation.
