Transformer-2 protein homolog alpha is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRA2A gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Dauwalder B, Amaya-Manzanares F, Mattox W | title = A human homologue of the Drosophila sex determination factor transformer-2 has conserved splicing regulatory functions | journal = Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A | volume = 93 | issue = 17 | pages = 9004–9 |date=Oct 1996 | pmid = 8799144 | pmc = 38585 | doi =10.1073/pnas.93.17.9004 | doi-access = free | bibcode = 1996PNAS...93.9004D }}{{cite journal | vauthors = Tacke R, Tohyama M, Ogawa S, Manley JL | title = Human Tra2 proteins are sequence-specific activators of pre-mRNA splicing | journal = Cell | volume = 93 | issue = 1 | pages = 139–48 |date=May 1998 | pmid = 9546399 | doi =10.1016/S0092-8674(00)81153-8 | s2cid = 15384749 | doi-access = free }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: TRA2A transformer-2 alpha| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=29896}}

This gene is a member of the transformer 2 homolog family and encodes a protein with two RS domains and an RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain. This phosphorylated nuclear protein binds to specific RNA sequences and plays a role in the regulation of pre-mRNA splicing. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described; however, the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined.
