Although generally considered a transcription factor this study has revealed that WT1 interacts with an essential splicing factor, U2AF65, and associates with the splicing machinery. WT1 is alternatively spliced and isoforms that include three amino acids, KTS, show stronger interaction with U2AF65 in vitro and better colocalization with splicing factors in vivo. Interestingly a mutation associated with DDS enhanced both −KTS WT1 binding to U2AF65 and splicing-factor colocalization. These data illustrate the functional importance of WT1 isoforms and
