>gnl|CDD|241094 cd12650, RRM1_Hu, RNA recognition motif 1 in the Hu proteins
family. This subfamily corresponds to the RRM1 of the
Hu proteins family which represents a group of
RNA-binding proteins involved in diverse biological
processes. Since the Hu proteins share high homology
with the Drosophila embryonic lethal abnormal vision
(ELAV) protein, the Hu family is sometimes referred to
as the ELAV family. Drosophila ELAV is exclusively
expressed in neurons and is required for the correct
differentiation and survival of neurons in flies. The
neuronal members of the Hu family include Hu-antigen B
(HuB or ELAV-2 or Hel-N1), Hu-antigen C (HuC or ELAV-3
or PLE21), and Hu-antigen D (HuD or ELAV-4), which play
important roles in neuronal differentiation, plasticity
and memory. HuB is also expressed in gonads. Hu-antigen
R (HuR or ELAV-1 or HuA) is the ubiquitously expressed
Hu family member. It has a variety of biological
functions mostly related to the regulation of cellular
response to DNA damage and other types of stress. HuR
has an anti-apoptotic function during early cell stress
response. It binds to mRNAs and enhances the expression
of several anti-apoptotic proteins, such as p21waf1,
p53, and prothymosin alpha. HuR also has pro-apoptotic
function by promoting apoptosis when cell death is
unavoidable. Furthermore, HuR may be important in
muscle differentiation, adipogenesis, suppression of
inflammatory response and modulation of gene expression
in response to chronic ethanol exposure and amino acid
starvation. Hu proteins perform their cytoplasmic and
nuclear molecular functions by coordinately regulating
functionally related mRNAs. In the cytoplasm, Hu
proteins recognize and bind to AU-rich RNA elements
(AREs) in the 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) of certain
target mRNAs, such as GAP-43, vascular epithelial
growth factor (VEGF), the glucose transporter GLUT1,
eotaxin and c-fos, and stabilize those ARE-containing
mRNAs. They also bind and regulate the translation of
some target mRNAs, such as neurofilament M, GLUT1, and
p27. In the nucleus, Hu proteins function as regulators
of polyadenylation and alternative splicing. Each Hu
protein contains three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs),
also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains). RRM1 and RRM2 may
cooperate in binding to an ARE. RRM3 may help to
maintain the stability of the RNA-protein complex, and
might also bind to poly(A) tails or be involved in
protein-protein interactions. .

conserved RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as
RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein
domains): two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated
in the N-terminal region followed by a linker region
and the third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein. The low sequence conservation of the linker
region is highly suggestive of a large variety in the
co-factors that associate with the various CELF family
members. Based on both, sequence similarity and
function, the CELF family can be divided into two
subfamilies, the first containing CELFs 1 and 2, and
the second containing CELFs 3, 4, 5, and 6. The
different CELF proteins may act through different sites
on at least some substrates. Furthermore, CELF proteins
may interact with each other in varying combinations to
influence alternative splicing in different contexts.
This subfamily also includes plant flowering time
control protein FCA that functions in the
posttranscriptional regulation of transcripts involved
in the flowering process. FCA contains two RRMs, and a
WW protein interaction domain. .

nuclear ribonucleoprotein G (hnRNP G), Y chromosome RNA
recognition motif 1 (hRBMY), testis-specific
heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein G-T (hnRNP G-T)
and similar proteins. This subfamily corresponds to
the RRM domain of hnRNP G, also termed glycoprotein p43
or RBMX, an RNA-binding motif protein located on the X
chromosome. It is expressed ubiquitously and has been
implicated in the splicing control of several
pre-mRNAs. Moreover, hnRNP G may function as a
regulator of transcription for SREBP-1c and GnRH1.
Research has shown that hnRNP G may also act as a
tumor-suppressor since it upregulates the Txnip gene
and promotes the fidelity of DNA end-joining activity.
In addition, hnRNP G appears to play a critical role in
proper neural development of zebrafish and frog
embryos. The family also includes several paralogs of
hnRNP G, such as hRBMY and hnRNP G-T (also termed
RNA-binding motif protein, X-linked-like-2). Both,
hRBMY and hnRNP G-T, are exclusively expressed in
testis and critical for male fertility. Like hnRNP G,
hRBMY and hnRNP G-T interact with factors implicated in
the regulation of pre-mRNA splicing, such as
hTra2-beta1 and T-STAR. Although members in this family
share a high conserved N-terminal RNA recognition motif
(RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP
(ribonucleoprotein domain), they appear to recognize
different RNA targets. For instance, hRBMY interacts
specifically with a stem-loop structure in which the
loop is formed by the sequence CA/UCAA. In contrast,
hnRNP G associates with single stranded RNA sequences
containing a CCA/C motif. In addition to the RRM, hnRNP
G contains a nascent transcripts targeting domain (NTD)
in the middle region and a novel auxiliary RNA-binding
domain (RBD) in its C-terminal region. The C-terminal
RBD exhibits distinct RNA binding specificity, and
would play a critical role in the regulation of
alternative splicing by hnRNP G. .

single-strand binding proteins (MSSP) family, including
single-stranded DNA-binding protein MSSP-1 (also termed
RBMS1 or SCR2) and MSSP-2 (also termed RBMS2 or SCR3).
All MSSP family members contain two RNA recognition
motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains)
or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), both of which are
responsible for the specific DNA binding activity.
Both, MSSP-1 and -2, have been identified as protein
factors binding to a putative DNA replication
origin/transcriptional enhancer sequence present
upstream from the human c-myc gene in both single- and
double-stranded forms. Thus, they have been implied in
regulating DNA replication, transcription, apoptosis
induction, and cell-cycle movement, via the interaction
with c-MYC, the product of protooncogene c-myc.
Moreover, the family includes a new member termed
RNA-binding motif, single-stranded-interacting protein
3 (RBMS3), which is not a transcriptional regulator.
RBMS3 binds with high affinity to A/U-rich stretches of
RNA, and to A/T-rich DNA sequences, and functions as a
regulator of cytoplasmic activity. In addition, a

12 protein), encoded by Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Spo5/Mug12 gene, is also included in this family. SPO5

RBM24, also termed RNA-binding region-containing

also binds the AU-/U-rich elements in p63 3'-UTR and
regulates p63 mRNA stability and activity. SUP-12 is a

subfamily corresponds to the RRM1 in the hnRNP A
subfamily which includes hnRNP A0, hnRNP A1, hnRNP
A2/B1, hnRNP A3 and similar proteins. hnRNP A0 is a low
abundance hnRNP protein that has been implicated in
mRNA stability in mammalian cells. hnRNP A1 is an
abundant eukaryotic nuclear RNA-binding protein that
may modulate splice site selection in pre-mRNA
splicing. hnRNP A2/B1 is an RNA trafficking response
element-binding protein that interacts with the hnRNP
A2 response element (A2RE). hnRNP A3 is also a RNA
trafficking response element-binding protein that
participates in the trafficking of A2RE-containing RNA.
The hnRNP A subfamily is characterized by two RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA

followed by a long glycine-rich region at the
C-terminus. The hnRNP D subfamily includes hnRNP D0,
hnRNP A/B, hnRNP DL and similar proteins. hnRNP D0 is a
UUAG-specific nuclear RNA binding protein that may be
involved in pre-mRNA splicing and telomere elongation.
hnRNP A/B is an RNA unwinding protein with a high
affinity for G- followed by U-rich regions. hnRNP A/B
has also been identified as an APOBEC1-binding protein

important role in apoB mRNA editing. hnRNP DL (or hnRNP
D-like) is a dual functional protein that possesses
DNA- and RNA-binding properties. It has been implicated
in mRNA biogenesis at the transcriptional and
post-transcriptional levels. All members in this

This subfamily corresponds to the RRM in a new class of

of SCAF4 remains unclear, but it shows high sequence
similarity to SCAF8 (also termed CDC5L
complex-associated protein 7, or RNA-binding motif
protein 16, or CTD-binding SR-like protein RA8). SCAF8
is a nuclear matrix protein that interacts specifically
with a highly serine-phosphorylated form of the

RNA polymerase II (pol II). The pol II CTD plays a role
in coupling transcription and pre-mRNA processing. In
addition, SCAF8 co-localizes primarily with
transcription sites that are enriched in nuclear matrix
fraction, which is known to contain proteins involved
in pre-mRNA processing. Thus, SCAF8 may play a direct
role in coupling with both, transcription and pre-mRNA
processing, processes. SCAF8 and SCAF4 both contain a

polyadenylate-binding proteins. This subfamily
corresponds to the RRM3 of type I poly(A)-binding
proteins (PABPs), highly conserved proteins that bind
to the poly(A) tail present at the 3' ends of most
eukaryotic mRNAs. They have been implicated in the
regulation of poly(A) tail length during the
polyadenylation reaction, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization by influencing the rate of deadenylation
and inhibition of mRNA decapping. The family represents
type I polyadenylate-binding proteins (PABPs),
including polyadenylate-binding protein 1 (PABP-1 or
PABPC1), polyadenylate-binding protein 3 (PABP-3 or
PABPC3), polyadenylate-binding protein 4 (PABP-4 or
APP-1 or iPABP), polyadenylate-binding protein 5
(PABP-5 or PABPC5), polyadenylate-binding protein

protein 1-like 2 (PABPC1L2 or RBM32),
polyadenylate-binding protein 4-like (PABP-4-like or
PABPC4L), yeast polyadenylate-binding protein,
cytoplasmic and nuclear (PABP or ACBP-67), and similar
proteins. PABP-1 is an ubiquitously expressed
multifunctional protein that may play a role in 3' end
formation of mRNA, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization, protection of poly(A) from nuclease
activity, mRNA deadenylation, inhibition of mRNA
decapping, and mRNP maturation. Although PABP-1 is
thought to be a cytoplasmic protein, it is also found
in the nucleus. PABP-1 may be involved in
nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and utilization of mRNP
particles. PABP-1 contains four copies of RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), a
less well conserved linker region, and a proline-rich
C-terminal conserved domain (CTD). PABP-3 is a
testis-specific poly(A)-binding protein specifically
expressed in round spermatids. It is mainly found in
mammalian and may play an important role in the
testis-specific regulation of mRNA homeostasis. PABP-3
shows significant sequence similarity to PABP-1.
However, it binds to poly(A) with a lower affinity than
PABP-1. PABP-1 possesses an A-rich sequence in its
5'-UTR and allows binding of PABP and blockage of
translation of its own mRNA. In contrast, PABP-3 lacks
the A-rich sequence in its 5'-UTR. PABP-4 is an
inducible poly(A)-binding protein (iPABP) that is
primarily localized to the cytoplasm. It shows
significant sequence similarity to PABP-1 as well. The
RNA binding properties of PABP-1 and PABP-4 appear to
be identical. PABP-5 is encoded by PABPC5 gene within
the X-specific subinterval, and expressed in fetal
brain and in a range of adult tissues in mammalian,
such as ovary and testis. It may play an important role
in germ cell development. Moreover, unlike other PABPs,
PABP-5 contains only four RRMs, but lacks both the
linker region and the CTD. PABP-1-like and PABP-1-like
2 are the orthologs of PABP-1. PABP-4-like is the
ortholog of PABP-5. Their cellular functions remain
unclear. The family also includes the yeast PABP, a
conserved poly(A) binding protein containing poly(A)
tails that can be attached to the 3'-ends of mRNAs. The
yeast PABP and its homologs may play important roles in
the initiation of translation and in mRNA decay. Like
vertebrate PABP-1, the yeast PABP contains four RRMs, a
linker region, and a proline-rich CTD as well. The
first two RRMs are mainly responsible for specific
binding to poly(A). The proline-rich region may be
involved in protein-protein interactions. .

PTB-binding raver-1, raver-2 and similar proteins.
This subfamily corresponds to the RRM2 of raver-1 and
raver-2. Raver-1 is a ubiquitously expressed
heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) that
serves as a co-repressor of the nucleoplasmic splicing
repressor polypyrimidine tract-binding protein
(PTB)-directed splicing of select mRNAs. It shuttles
between the cytoplasm and the nucleus and can
accumulate in the perinucleolar compartment, a dynamic
nuclear substructure that harbors PTB. Raver-1 also
modulates focal adhesion assembly by binding to the
cytoskeletal proteins, including alpha-actinin,
vinculin, and metavinculin (an alternatively spliced
isoform of vinculin) at adhesion complexes,
particularly in differentiated muscle tissue. Raver-2
is a novel member of the heterogeneous nuclear
ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family. It shows high
sequence homology to raver-1. Raver-2 exerts a
spatio-temporal expression pattern during embryogenesis
and is mainly limited to differentiated neurons and
glia cells. Although it displays nucleo-cytoplasmic
shuttling in heterokaryons, raver2 localizes to the
nucleus in glia cells and neurons. Raver-2 can interact
with PTB and may participate in PTB-mediated
RNA-processing. However, there is no evidence
indicating that raver-2 can bind to cytoplasmic
proteins. Both, raver-1 and raver-2, contain three
N-terminal RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed
RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein
domains), two putative nuclear localization signals
(NLS) at the N- and C-termini, a central leucine-rich
region, and a C-terminal region harboring two
[SG][IL]LGxxP motifs. They binds to RNA through the
RRMs. In addition, the two [SG][IL]LGxxP motifs serve
as the PTB-binding motifs in raver1. However, raver-2
interacts with PTB through the SLLGEPP motif only. .

stimulation factor subunit 2 (CSTF2), yeast ortholog
mRNA 3'-end-processing protein RNA15 and similar
proteins. This subfamily corresponds to the RRM domain
of CSTF2, its tau variant and eukaryotic homologs.
CSTF2, also termed cleavage stimulation factor 64 kDa
subunit (CstF64), is the vertebrate conterpart of yeast
mRNA 3'-end-processing protein RNA15. It is expressed
in all somatic tissues and is one of three cleavage
stimulatory factor (CstF) subunits required for
polyadenylation. CstF64 contains an N-terminal RNA
recognition motif (RRM), also known as RBD (RNA binding
domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), a
CstF77-binding domain, a repeated MEARA helical region
and a conserved C-terminal domain reported to bind the
transcription factor PC-4. During polyadenylation, CstF
interacts with the pre-mRNA through the RRM of CstF64
at U- or GU-rich sequences within 10 to 30 nucleotides
downstream of the cleavage site. CSTF2T, also termed
tauCstF64, is a paralog of the X-linked cleavage
stimulation factor CstF64 protein that supports
polyadenylation in most somatic cells. It is expressed
during meiosis and subsequent haploid differentiation
in a more limited set of tissues and cell types,
largely in meiotic and postmeiotic male germ cells, and
to a lesser extent in brain. The loss of CSTF2T will
cause male infertility, as it is necessary for
spermatogenesis and fertilization. Moreover, CSTF2T is
required for expression of genes involved in
morphological differentiation of spermatids, as well as
for genes having products that function during
interaction of motile spermatozoa with eggs. It
promotes germ cell-specific patterns of polyadenylation
by using its RRM to bind to different sequence elements
downstream of polyadenylation sites than does CstF64.
The family also includes yeast ortholog mRNA
3'-end-processing protein RNA15 and similar proteins.
RNA15 is a core subunit of cleavage factor IA (CFIA),
an essential transcriptional 3'-end processing factor
from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. RNA recognition by CFIA
is mediated by an N-terminal RRM, which is contained in
the RNA15 subunit of the complex. The RRM of RNA15 has
a strong preference for GU-rich RNAs, mediated by a
binding pocket that is entirely conserved in both yeast
and vertebrate RNA15 orthologs.

functions as a poly-U RNA-binding protein required to
reconstitute splicing in depleted nuclear extracts. Its
function is enhanced through interaction with U2
auxiliary factor U2AF65. PUF60 also controls human
c-myc gene expression by binding and inhibiting the

Drosophila Musashi and Xenopus laevis nervous
system-specific RNP protein-1 (Nrp-1). It has been
implicated in the maintenance of the stem-cell state,
differentiation, and tumorigenesis. It translationally

binding to the 3'-untranslated region of mRNA of Numb,
encoding a membrane-associated inhibitor of Notch
signaling, and further influences neural development.
Moreover, Musashi-1 represses translation by

(CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like) family of RNA-binding
proteins that display dual nuclear and cytoplasmic
localizations and have been implicated in the
regulation of pre-mRNA splicing and in the control of
mRNA translation and deadenylation. CELF-3, expressed

CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 3, or embryonic lethal
abnormal vision (ELAV)-type RNA-binding protein 1
(ETR-1), or expanded repeat domain protein CAG/CTG 4,
or trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 4 protein
(TNRC4). It plays an important role in the pathogenesis
of tauopathies. CELF-3 contains three highly conserved
RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as RBDs (RNA

two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated in the
N-terminal region followed by a linker region and the
third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein.The effect of CELF-3 on tau splicing is
mediated mainly by the RNA-binding activity of RRM2.
The divergent linker region might mediate the
interaction of CELF-3 with other proteins regulating
its activity or involved in target recognition. CELF-4,
highly expressed throughout the brain and in glandular
tissues, moderately expressed in heart, skeletal
muscle, and liver, is also known as bruno-like protein
4 (BRUNOL-4), or CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 4. Like
CELF-3, CELF-4 also contain three highly conserved
RRMs. The splicing activation or repression activity of
CELF-4 on some specific substrates is mediated by its
RRM1/RRM2. On the other hand, both RRM1 and RRM2 of
CELF-4 can activate cardiac troponin T (cTNT) exon 5
inclusion. CELF-5, expressed in brain, is also known as
bruno-like protein 5 (BRUNOL-5), or CUG-BP- and
ETR-3-like factor 5. Although its biological role
remains unclear, CELF-5 shares same domain architecture
with CELF-3. CELF-6, strongly expressed in kidney,
brain, and testis, is also known as bruno-like protein

activates exon inclusion of a cardiac troponin T
minigene in transient transfection assays in an
muscle-specific splicing enhancer (MSE)-dependent
manner and can activate inclusion via multiple copies
of a single element, MSE2. CELF-6 also promotes
skipping of exon 11 of insulin receptor, a known target
of CELF activity that is expressed in kidney. In
additiona to three highly conserved RRMs, CELF-6 also

similar proteins. This subgroup corresponds to the RRM
domain of CSTF2, its tau variant and eukaryotic
homologs. CSTF2, also termed cleavage stimulation
factor 64 kDa subunit (CstF64), is the vertebrate
conterpart of yeast mRNA 3'-end-processing protein
RNA15. It is expressed in all somatic tissues and is
one of three cleavage stimulatory factor (CstF)
subunits required for polyadenylation. CstF64 contains
an N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also known
as RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein
domain), a CstF77-binding domain, a repeated MEARA
helical region and a conserved C-terminal domain
reported to bind the transcription factor PC-4. During
polyadenylation, CstF interacts with the pre-mRNA
through the RRM of CstF64 at U- or GU-rich sequences
within 10 to 30 nucleotides downstream of the cleavage
site. CSTF2T, also termed tauCstF64, is a paralog of
the X-linked cleavage stimulation factor CstF64 protein
that supports polyadenylation in most somatic cells. It
is expressed during meiosis and subsequent haploid
differentiation in a more limited set of tissues and
cell types, largely in meiotic and postmeiotic male
germ cells, and to a lesser extent in brain. The loss
of CSTF2T will cause male infertility, as it is
necessary for spermatogenesis and fertilization.
Moreover, CSTF2T is required for expression of genes
involved in morphological differentiation of
spermatids, as well as for genes having products that
function during interaction of motile spermatozoa with
eggs. It promotes germ cell-specific patterns of
polyadenylation by using its RRM to bind to different
sequence elements downstream of polyadenylation sites
than does CstF64. .

the ubiquitously expressed Hu family member. It has a
variety of biological functions mostly related to the
regulation of cellular response to DNA damage and other
types of stress. HuR has an anti-apoptotic function
during early cell stress response. It binds to mRNAs
and enhances the expression of several anti-apoptotic
proteins, such as p21waf1, p53, and prothymosin alpha.
HuR also has pro-apoptotic function by promoting
apoptosis when cell death is unavoidable. Furthermore,
HuR may be important in muscle differentiation,
adipogenesis, suppression of inflammatory response and
modulation of gene expression in response to chronic
ethanol exposure and amino acid starvation. Like other
Hu proteins, HuR contains three RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs

to the RRM3 of TIA-1, TIAR, and PUB1. Nucleolysin TIA-1
isoform p40 (p40-TIA-1 or TIA-1) and nucleolysin
TIA-1-related protein (TIAR) are granule-associated RNA
binding proteins involved in inducing apoptosis in
cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL) target cells. They share
high sequence similarity and are expressed in a wide
variety of cell types. TIA-1 can be phosphorylated by a
serine/threonine kinase that is activated during
Fas-mediated apoptosis.TIAR is mainly localized in the
nucleus of hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. It
is translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in
response to exogenous triggers of apoptosis. Both TIA-1
and TIAR bind specifically to poly(A) but not to
poly(C) homopolymers. They are composed of three
N-terminal highly homologous RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains), and a glutamine-rich
C-terminal auxiliary domain containing a
lysosome-targeting motif. TIA-1 and TIAR interact with
RNAs containing short stretches of uridylates and their
RRM2 can mediate the specific binding to uridylate-rich
RNAs. The C-terminal auxiliary domain may be
responsible for interacting with other proteins. In
addition, TIA-1 and TIAR share a potential serine
protease-cleavage site (Phe-Val-Arg) localized at the
junction between their RNA binding domains and their
C-terminal auxiliary domains. This subfamily also
includes a yeast nuclear and cytoplasmic polyadenylated
RNA-binding protein PUB1, termed ARS consensus-binding
protein ACBP-60, or poly uridylate-binding protein, or
poly(U)-binding protein, which has been identified as
both a heterogeneous nuclear RNA-binding protein

It may be stably bound to a translationally inactive
subpopulation of mRNAs within the cytoplasm. PUB1 is
distributed in both, the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and
binds to poly(A)+ RNA (mRNA or pre-mRNA). Although it
is one of the major cellular proteins cross-linked by
UV light to polyadenylated RNAs in vivo, PUB1 is
nonessential for cell growth in yeast. PUB1 also binds
to T-rich single stranded DNA (ssDNA); however, there
is no strong evidence implicating PUB1 in the mechanism
of DNA replication. PUB1 contains three RRMs, and a GAR
motif (glycine and arginine rich stretch) that is
located between RRM2 and RRM3. .

protein-protein interactions. DAZL and BOULE contain a
single copy of the DAZ motif, while DAZ proteins can
contain 8-24 copies of this repeat. Although their
specific biochemical functions remain to be
investigated, DAZL proteins may interact with
poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPs), and act as
translational activators of specific mRNAs during
gametogenesis. .

Elav-like family member CELF-1, CELF-2, Drosophila
melanogaster Bruno protein and similar proteins. This
subgroup corresponds to the RRM1 of CELF-1, CELF-2 and
Bruno protein. CELF-1 (also termed BRUNOL-2, or
CUG-BP1, or EDEN-BP) and CELF-2 (also termed BRUNOL-3,
or ETR-3, or CUG-BP2, or NAPOR) belong to the CUGBP1
and ETR-3-like factors (CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like)
family of RNA-binding proteins that have been
implicated in regulation of pre-mRNA splicing, and
control of mRNA translation and deadenylation. CELF-1
is strongly expressed in all adult and fetal tissues
tested. The human CELF-1 is a nuclear and cytoplasmic
RNA-binding protein that regulates multiple aspects of
nuclear and cytoplasmic mRNA processing, with
implications for onset of type 1 myotonic dystrophy
(DM1), a neuromuscular disease associated with an
unstable CUG triplet expansion in the 3'-UTR
(3'-untranslated region) of the DMPK (myotonic
dystrophy protein kinase) gene; it preferentially
targets UGU-rich mRNA elements. It has been shown to
bind to a Bruno response element, a cis-element
involved in translational control of oskar mRNA in
Drosophila, and share sequence similarity to Bruno, the
Drosophila protein that mediates this process. The
Xenopus homolog embryo deadenylation element-binding
protein (EDEN-BP) mediates sequence-specific
deadenylation of Eg5 mRNA. It binds specifically to the
EDEN motif in the 3'-untranslated regions of maternal
mRNAs and targets these mRNAs for deadenylation and
translational repression. CELF-1 contain three highly
conserved RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as
RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein
domains): two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated
in the N-terminal region followed by a linker region
and the third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein. The two N-terminal RRMs of EDEN-BP are
necessary for the interaction with EDEN as well as a
part of the linker region (between RRM2 and RRM3).
Oligomerization of EDEN-BP is required for specific
mRNA deadenylation and binding. CELF-2 is expressed in
all tissues at some level, but highest in brain, heart,
and thymus. It has been implicated in the regulation of
nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA processing events,
including alternative splicing, RNA editing, stability
and translation. CELF-2 shares high sequence identity
with CELF-1, but shows different binding specificity;
it binds preferentially to sequences with UG repeats
and UGUU motifs. It has been shown to bind to a Bruno
response element, a cis-element involved in
translational control of oskar mRNA in Drosophila, and
share sequence similarity to Bruno, the Drosophila
protein that mediates this process. It also binds to
the 3'-UTR of cyclooxygenase-2 messages, affecting both
translation and mRNA stability, and binds to apoB mRNA,
regulating its C to U editing. CELF-2 also contains
three highly conserved RRMs. It binds to RNA via the
first two RRMs, which are also important for
localization in the cytoplasm. The splicing activation
or repression activity of CELF-2 on some specific
substrates is mediated by RRM1/RRM2. Both, RRM1 and
RRM2 of CELF-2, can activate cardiac troponin T (cTNT)
exon 5 inclusion. In addition, CELF-2 possesses a
typical arginine and lysine-rich nuclear localization
signal (NLS) in the C-terminus, within RRM3. This
subgroup also includes Drosophila melanogaster Bruno
protein, which plays a central role in regulation of
Oskar (Osk) expression in flies. It mediates repression
by binding to regulatory Bruno response elements (BREs)
in the Osk mRNA 3' UTR. The full-length Bruno protein
contains three RRMs, two located in the N-terminal half
of the protein and the third near the C-terminus,
separated by a linker region. .

ribonucleoprotein PTB-binding 1 (raver-1). This
subgroup corresponds to the RRM2 of raver-1, a
ubiquitously expressed heterogeneous nuclear
ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) that serves as a co-repressor
of the nucleoplasmic splicing repressor polypyrimidine
tract-binding protein (PTB)-directed splicing of select
mRNAs. It shuttles between the cytoplasm and the
nucleus and can accumulate in the perinucleolar
compartment, a dynamic nuclear substructure that
harbors PTB. Raver-1 also modulates focal adhesion
assembly by binding to the cytoskeletal proteins,
including alpha-actinin, vinculin, and metavinculin (an
alternatively spliced isoform of vinculin) at adhesion
complexes, particularly in differentiated muscle
tissue. Raver-1 contains three N-terminal RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains),
two putative nuclear localization signals (NLS) at the
N- and C-termini, a central leucine-rich region, and a
C-terminal region harboring two PTB-binding
[SG][IL]LGxxP motifs. Raver1 binds to PTB through the
PTB-binding motifs at its C-terminal half, and binds to
other partners, such as RNA having the sequence
UCAUGCAGUCUG, through its N-terminal RRMs.
Interestingly, the 12-nucleotide RNA having the
sequence UCAUGCAGUCUG with micromolar affinity is found
in vinculin mRNA. Additional research indicates that
the RRM1 of raver-1 directs its interaction with the
tail domain of activated vinculin. Then the
raver1/vinculin tail (Vt) complex binds to vinculin
mRNA, which is permissive for vinculin binding to
F-actin. .

CD corresponds to the RRM. regulation of poly(A) tail
length during the polyadenylation reaction, translation
initiation, mRNA stabilization by influencing the rate
of deadenylation and inhibition of mRNA decapping. The
family represents type I polyadenylate-binding proteins
(PABPs), including polyadenylate-binding protein 1
(PABP-1 or PABPC1), polyadenylate-binding protein 3
(PABP-3 or PABPC3), polyadenylate-binding protein 4
(PABP-4 or APP-1 or iPABP), polyadenylate-binding

protein 1-like (PABP-1-like or PABPC1L),
polyadenylate-binding protein 1-like 2 (PABPC1L2 or
RBM32), polyadenylate-binding protein 4-like
(PABP-4-like or PABPC4L), yeast polyadenylate-binding
protein, cytoplasmic and nuclear (PABP or ACBP-67), and
similar proteins. PABP-1 is an ubiquitously expressed
multifunctional protein that may play a role in 3' end
formation of mRNA, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization, protection of poly(A) from nuclease
activity, mRNA deadenylation, inhibition of mRNA
decapping, and mRNP maturation. Although PABP-1 is
thought to be a cytoplasmic protein, it is also found
in the nucleus. PABP-1 may be involved in
nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and utilization of mRNP
particles. PABP-1 contains four copies of RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), a
less well conserved linker region, and a proline-rich
C-terminal conserved domain (CTD). PABP-3 is a
testis-specific poly(A)-binding protein specifically
expressed in round spermatids. It is mainly found in
mammalian and may play an important role in the
testis-specific regulation of mRNA homeostasis. PABP-3
shows significant sequence similarity to PABP-1.
However, it binds to poly(A) with a lower affinity than
PABP-1. Moreover, PABP-1 possesses an A-rich sequence
in its 5'-UTR and allows binding of PABP and blockage
of translation of its own mRNA. In contrast, PABP-3
lacks the A-rich sequence in its 5'-UTR. PABP-4 is an
inducible poly(A)-binding protein (iPABP) that is
primarily localized to the cytoplasm. It shows
significant sequence similarity to PABP-1 as well. The
RNA binding properties of PABP-1 and PABP-4 appear to
be identical. PABP-5 is encoded by PABPC5 gene within
the X-specific subinterval, and expressed in fetal
brain and in a range of adult tissues in mammalian,
such as ovary and testis. It may play an important role
in germ cell development. Moreover, unlike other PABPs,
PABP-5 contains only four RRMs, but lacks both the
linker region and the CTD. PABP-1-like and PABP-1-like
2 are the orthologs of PABP-1. PABP-4-like is the
ortholog of PABP-5. Their cellular functions remain
unclear. The family also includes the yeast PABP, a
conserved poly(A) binding protein containing poly(A)
tails that can be attached to the 3'-ends of mRNAs. The
yeast PABP and its homologs may play important roles in
the initiation of translation and in mRNA decay. Like
vertebrate PABP-1, the yeast PABP contains four RRMs, a
linker region, and a proline-rich CTD as well. The
first two RRMs are mainly responsible for specific
binding to poly(A). The proline-rich region may be
involved in protein-protein interactions. .

Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein required for the first
catalytic step of splicing and for progression of
spliceosome assembly. It binds specifically to the U2
snRNP and is an intrinsic component of prespliceosomes
and spliceosomes. Yeast ist3 contains an atypical RNA

pre-mRNA retention and splicing complex, the atypical
RRM of ist3 functions as a scaffold that organizes the

single-strand binding proteins (MSSP) family, including
single-stranded DNA-binding protein MSSP-1 (also termed
RBMS1 or SCR2) and MSSP-2 (also termed RBMS2 or SCR3).
All MSSP family members contain two RNA recognition

or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), both of which are
responsible for the specific DNA binding activity.
Both, MSSP-1 and -2, have been identified as protein
factors binding to a putative DNA replication
origin/transcriptional enhancer sequence present
upstream from the human c-myc gene in both single- and
double-stranded forms. Thus they have been implied in
regulating DNA replication, transcription, apoptosis

the RRM1 of Hrp1p and similar proteins. Hrp1p or Nab4p,
also termed cleavage factor IB (CFIB), is a
sequence-specific trans-acting factor that is essential
for mRNA 3'-end formation in yeast Saccharomyces
cerevisiae. It can be UV cross-linked to RNA and
specifically recognizes the (UA)6 RNA element required
for both, the cleavage and poly(A) addition, steps.
Moreover, Hrp1p can shuttle between the nucleus and the

This subfamily corresponds to the RRM of U1-70K, also
termed snRNP70, a key component of the U1 snRNP
complex, which is one of the key factors facilitating
the splicing of pre-mRNA via interaction at the 5'
splice site, and is involved in regulation of
polyadenylation of some viral and cellular genes,
enhancing or inhibiting efficient poly(A) site usage.
U1-70K plays an essential role in targeting the U1
snRNP to the 5' splice site through protein-protein
interactions with regulatory RNA-binding splicing
factors, such as the RS protein ASF/SF2. Moreover,
U1-70K protein can specifically bind to stem-loop I of
the U1 small nuclear RNA (U1 snRNA) contained in the U1
snRNP complex. It also mediates the binding of U1C,
another U1-specific protein, to the U1 snRNP complex.
U1-70K contains a conserved RNA recognition motif
(RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP
(ribonucleoprotein domain), followed by an adjacent
glycine-rich region at the N-terminal half, and two
serine/arginine-rich (SR) domains at the C-terminal
half. The RRM is responsible for the binding of
stem-loop I of U1 snRNA molecule. Additionally, the
most prominent immunodominant region that can be
recognized by auto-antibodies from autoimmune patients
may be located within the RRM. The SR domains are
involved in protein-protein interaction with SR
proteins that mediate 5' splice site recognition. For
instance, the first SR domain is necessary and
sufficient for ASF/SF2 Binding. The family also
includes Drosophila U1-70K that is an essential
splicing factor required for viability in flies, but
its SR domain is dispensable. The yeast U1-70k doesn't
contain easily recognizable SR domains and shows low
sequence similarity in the RRM region with other U1-70k

also termed PGC-1-related coactivator, one of the
members of PGC-1 transcriptional coactivators family,
including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor
gamma coactivators PGC-1alpha and PGC-1beta. Unlike
PGC-1alpha and PGC-1beta, PRC is ubiquitous and more
abundantly expressed in proliferating cells than in
growth-arrested cells. PRC has been implicated in the
regulation of several metabolic pathways, mitochondrial
biogenesis, and cell growth. It functions as a
growth-regulated transcriptional cofactor activating
many nuclear genes specifying mitochondrial respiratory
function. PRC directly interacts with nuclear
transcriptional factors implicated in respiratory chain
expression including nuclear respiratory factors 1 and
2 (NRF-1 and NRF-2), CREB (cAMP-response
element-binding protein), and estrogen-related receptor
alpha (ERRalpha). It interacts indirectly with the
NRF-2beta subunit through host cell factor (HCF), a
cellular protein involved in herpes simplex virus (HSV)
infection and cell cycle regulation. Furthermore, like
PGC-1alpha and PGC-1beta, PRC can transactivate a
number of NRF-dependent nuclear genes required for
mitochondrial respiratory function, including those
encoding cytochrome c, 5-aminolevulinate synthase,
Tfam, and TFB1M, and TFB2M. Further research indicates
that PRC may also act as a sensor of metabolic stress
that orchestrates a redox-sensitive program of
inflammatory gene expression. PRC is a multi-domain

which belong to the CUGBP1 and ETR-3-like factors
(CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like) family of RNA-binding
proteins that display dual nuclear and cytoplasmic
localizations and have been implicated in the
regulation of pre-mRNA splicing and in the control of
mRNA translation and deadenylation. CELF-3, expressed
in brain and testis only, is also known as bruno-like
protein 1 (BRUNOL-1), or CAG repeat protein 4, or
CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 3, or embryonic lethal
abnormal vision (ELAV)-type RNA-binding protein 1
(ETR-1), or expanded repeat domain protein CAG/CTG 4,
or trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 4 protein
(TNRC4). It plays an important role in the pathogenesis
of tauopathies. CELF-3 contains three highly conserved
RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains):
two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated in the
N-terminal region followed by a linker region and the
third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein.The effect of CELF-3 on tau splicing is
mediated mainly by the RNA-binding activity of RRM2.
The divergent linker region might mediate the
interaction of CELF-3 with other proteins regulating
its activity or involved in target recognition. CELF-4,
highly expressed throughout the brain and in glandular
tissues, moderately expressed in heart, skeletal
muscle, and liver, is also known as bruno-like protein
4 (BRUNOL-4), or CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 4. Like
CELF-3, CELF-4 also contains three highly conserved
RRMs. The splicing activation or repression activity of
CELF-4 on some specific substrates is mediated by its
RRM1/RRM2. Both, RRM1 and RRM2 of CELF-4, can activate
cardiac troponin T (cTNT) exon 5 inclusion. CELF-5,
expressed in brain, is also known as bruno-like protein
5 (BRUNOL-5), or CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 5.
Although its biological role remains unclear, CELF-5
shares same domain architecture with CELF-3. CELF-6,
strongly expressed in kidney, brain, and testis, is
also known as bruno-like protein 6 (BRUNOL-6), or
CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 6. It activates exon
inclusion of a cardiac troponin T minigene in transient
transfection assays in an muscle-specific splicing
enhancer (MSE)-dependent manner and can activate
inclusion via multiple copies of a single element,
MSE2. CELF-6 also promotes skipping of exon 11 of
insulin receptor, a known target of CELF activity that
is expressed in kidney. In addition to three highly
conserved RRMs, CELF-6 also possesses numerous
potential phosphorylation sites, a potential nuclear
localization signal (NLS) at the C terminus, and an
alanine-rich region within the divergent linker region.

>gnl|CDD|240823 cd12377, RRM3_Hu, RNA recognition motif 3 in the Hu proteins
family. This subfamily corresponds to the RRM3 of the
Hu proteins family which represent a group of
RNA-binding proteins involved in diverse biological
processes. Since the Hu proteins share high homology
with the Drosophila embryonic lethal abnormal vision
(ELAV) protein, the Hu family is sometimes referred to
as the ELAV family. Drosophila ELAV is exclusively
expressed in neurons and is required for the correct
differentiation and survival of neurons in flies. The
neuronal members of the Hu family include Hu-antigen B
(HuB or ELAV-2 or Hel-N1), Hu-antigen C (HuC or ELAV-3
or PLE21), and Hu-antigen D (HuD or ELAV-4), which play
important roles in neuronal differentiation, plasticity
and memory. HuB is also expressed in gonads. Hu-antigen
R (HuR or ELAV-1 or HuA) is the ubiquitously expressed
Hu family member. It has a variety of biological
functions mostly related to the regulation of cellular
response to DNA damage and other types of stress. Hu
proteins perform their cytoplasmic and nuclear
molecular functions by coordinately regulating
functionally related mRNAs. In the cytoplasm, Hu
proteins recognize and bind to AU-rich RNA elements
(AREs) in the 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) of certain
target mRNAs, such as GAP-43, vascular epithelial
growth factor (VEGF), the glucose transporter GLUT1,
eotaxin and c-fos, and stabilize those ARE-containing
mRNAs. They also bind and regulate the translation of
some target mRNAs, such as neurofilament M, GLUT1, and
p27. In the nucleus, Hu proteins function as regulators
of polyadenylation and alternative splicing. Each Hu
protein contains three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs),
also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains). RRM1 and RRM2 may
cooperate in binding to an ARE. RRM3 may help to
maintain the stability of the RNA-protein complex, and
might also bind to poly(A) tails or be involved in
protein-protein interactions. .

nuclear ribonucleoprotein auxiliary factor U2AF 65 kDa
subunit (U2AF65) and similar proteins. This subfamily
corresponds to the RRM2 of U2AF65 and dU2AF50. U2AF65,
also termed U2AF2, is the large subunit of U2 small
nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) auxiliary factor
(U2AF), which has been implicated in the recruitment of
U2 snRNP to pre-mRNAs and is a highly conserved
heterodimer composed of large and small subunits.
U2AF65 specifically recognizes the intron
polypyrimidine tract upstream of the 3' splice site and
promotes binding of U2 snRNP to the pre-mRNA
branchpoint. U2AF65 also plays an important role in the
nuclear export of mRNA. It facilitates the formation of
a messenger ribonucleoprotein export complex,
containing both the NXF1 receptor and the RNA
substrate. Moreover, U2AF65 interacts directly and
specifically with expanded CAG RNA, and serves as an
adaptor to link expanded CAG RNA to NXF1 for RNA
export. U2AF65 contains an N-terminal RS domain rich in
arginine and serine, followed by a proline-rich segment
and three C-terminal RNA recognition motifs (RRMs),
also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains). The N-terminal RS domain
stabilizes the interaction of U2 snRNP with the branch
point (BP) by contacting the branch region, and further
promotes base pair interactions between U2 snRNA and
the BP. The proline-rich segment mediates
protein-protein interactions with the RRM domain of the
small U2AF subunit (U2AF35 or U2AF1). The RRM1 and RRM2
are sufficient for specific RNA binding, while RRM3 is
responsible for protein-protein interactions. The
family also includes Splicing factor U2AF 50 kDa
subunit (dU2AF50), the Drosophila ortholog of U2AF65.
dU2AF50 functions as an essential pre-mRNA splicing
factor in flies. It associates with intronless mRNAs
and plays a significant and unexpected role in the
nuclear export of a large number of intronless mRNAs.

the RRM1 of Hrp1p and similar proteins. Hrp1p or Nab4p,
also termed cleavage factor IB (CFIB), is a
sequence-specific trans-acting factor that is essential
for mRNA 3'-end formation in yeast Saccharomyces
cerevisiae. It can be UV cross-linked to RNA and
specifically recognizes the (UA)6 RNA element required
for both, the cleavage and poly(A) addition steps.
Moreover, Hrp1p can shuttle between the nucleus and the
cytoplasm, and play an additional role in the export of
mRNAs to the cytoplasm. Hrp1p also interacts with
Rna15p and Rna14p, two components of CF1A. In addition,
Hrp1p functions as a factor directly involved in
modulating the activity of the nonsense-mediated mRNA
decay (NMD) pathway; it binds specifically to a
downstream sequence element (DSE)-containing RNA and
interacts with Upf1p, a component of the surveillance
complex, further triggering the NMD pathway. Hrp1p
contains two central RNA recognition motifs (RRMs),
also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs

putatively expressed in central nervous system (CNS)
stem cells and neural progenitor cells and associated
with asymmetric divisions in neural progenitor cells.
Musashi-1 is evolutionarily conserved from
invertebrates to vertebrates. It is a homolog of
Drosophila Musashi and Xenopus laevis nervous
system-specific RNP protein-1 (Nrp-1). Musashi-1 has
been implicated in the maintenance of the stem-cell
state, differentiation, and tumorigenesis. It
translationally regulates the expression of a mammalian
numb gene by binding to the 3'-untranslated region of
mRNA of Numb, encoding a membrane-associated inhibitor
of Notch signaling, and further influences neural
development. Moreover, it represses translation by
interacting with the poly(A)-binding protein and
competes for binding of the eukaryotic initiation
factor-4G (eIF-4G). Musashi-1 contains two conserved

similar proteins. This subfamily corresponds to the
RRM of SRSF2 and SRSF8. SRSF2, also termed protein
PR264, or splicing component, 35 kDa (splicing factor
SC35 or SC-35), is a prototypical SR protein that plays
important roles in the alternative splicing of
pre-mRNA. It is also involved in transcription
elongation by directly or indirectly mediating the
recruitment of elongation factors to the C-terminal
domain of polymerase II. SRSF2 is exclusively localized
in the nucleus and is restricted to nuclear processes.
It contains a single N-terminal RNA recognition motif
(RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP
(ribonucleoprotein domain), followed by a C-terminal RS
domain rich in serine-arginine dipeptides. The RRM is
responsible for the specific recognition of 5'-SSNG-3'
(S=C/G) RNA. In the regulation of alternative splicing
events, it specifically binds to cis-regulatory
elements on the pre-mRNA. The RS domain modulates SRSF2
activity through phosphorylation, directly contacts
RNA, and promotes protein-protein interactions with the
spliceosome. SRSF8, also termed SRP46 or SFRS2B, is a
novel mammalian SR splicing factor encoded by a
PR264/SC35 functional retropseudogene. SRSF8 is
localized in the nucleus and does not display the same
activity as PR264/SC35. It functions as an essential
splicing factor in complementing a HeLa cell S100
extract deficient in SR proteins. Like SRSF2, SRSF8
contains a single N-terminal RRM and a C-terminal RS
domain. .

identified as a nuclear receptor coactivator. It
mediates transcriptional coactivation and RNA splicing
effects in a promoter-preferential manner, and is
enhanced by thyroid hormone receptor-binding protein
(TRBP). CoAA contains two N-terminal RNA recognition

PGC-1-related coactivator (PRC). PGC-1beta plays a
nonredundant role in controlling mitochondrial
oxidative energy metabolism and affects both, insulin
sensitivity and mitochondrial biogenesis, and functions
in a number of oxidative tissues. It is involved in
maintaining baseline mitochondrial function and cardiac
contractile function following pressure overload
hypertrophy by preserving glucose metabolism and
preventing oxidative stress. PGC-1beta induces
hypertriglyceridemia in response to dietary fats
through activating hepatic lipogenesis and lipoprotein
secretion. It can stimulate apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3)
expression, further mediating hypolipidemic effect of
nicotinic acid. PGC-1beta also drives nuclear
respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) target gene expression and
NRF-1 and estrogen related receptor alpha
(ERRalpha)-dependent mitochondrial biogenesis. The
modulation of the expression of PGC-1beta can trigger
ERRalpha-induced adipogenesis. PGC-1beta is also a

to the poly(A) tail present at the 3' ends of most
eukaryotic mRNAs. They have been implicated in the
regulation of poly(A) tail length during the
polyadenylation reaction, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization by influencing the rate of deadenylation
and inhibition of mRNA decapping. The family represents
type I polyadenylate-binding proteins (PABPs),

polyadenylate-binding protein 4-like (PABP-4-like or
PABPC4L), yeast polyadenylate-binding protein,
cytoplasmic and nuclear (PABP or ACBP-67), and similar
proteins. PABP-1 is a ubiquitously expressed
multifunctional protein that may play a role in 3' end
formation of mRNA, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization, protection of poly(A) from nuclease
activity, mRNA deadenylation, inhibition of mRNA
decapping, and mRNP maturation. Although PABP-1 is
thought to be a cytoplasmic protein, it is also found
in the nucleus. PABP-1 may be involved in
nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and utilization of mRNP
particles. PABP-1 contains four copies of RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), a
less well conserved linker region, and a proline-rich
C-terminal conserved domain (CTD). PABP-3 is a
testis-specific poly(A)-binding protein specifically
expressed in round spermatids. It is mainly found in
mammalian and may play an important role in the
testis-specific regulation of mRNA homeostasis. PABP-3
shows significant sequence similarity to PABP-1.
However, it binds to poly(A) with a lower affinity than
PABP-1. Moreover, PABP-1 possesses an A-rich sequence
in its 5'-UTR and allows binding of PABP and blockage
of translation of its own mRNA. In contrast, PABP-3
lacks the A-rich sequence in its 5'-UTR. PABP-4 is an
inducible poly(A)-binding protein (iPABP) that is
primarily localized to the cytoplasm. It shows
significant sequence similarity to PABP-1 as well. The
RNA binding properties of PABP-1 and PABP-4 appear to
be identical. PABP-5 is encoded by PABPC5 gene within
the X-specific subinterval, and expressed in fetal
brain and in a range of adult tissues in mammals, such
as ovary and testis. It may play an important role in
germ cell development. Moreover, unlike other PABPs,
PABP-5 contains only four RRMs, but lacks both the
linker region and the CTD. PABP-1-like and PABP-1-like
2 are the orthologs of PABP-1. PABP-4-like is the
ortholog of PABP-5. Their cellular functions remain
unclear. The family also includes yeast PABP, a
conserved poly(A) binding protein containing poly(A)
tails that can be attached to the 3'-ends of mRNAs. The
yeast PABP and its homologs may play important roles in
the initiation of translation and in mRNA decay. Like
vertebrate PABP-1, the yeast PABP contains four RRMs, a
linker region, and a proline-rich CTD as well. The
first two RRMs are mainly responsible for specific
binding to poly(A). The proline-rich region may be
involved in protein-protein interactions. .

Elav-like family member CELF-3, CELF-4, CELF-5, CELF-6
and similar proteins. This subgroup corresponds to the
RRM2 of CELF-3, CELF-4, CELF-5, and CELF-6, all of
which belong to the CUGBP1 and ETR-3-like factors
(CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like) family of RNA-binding
proteins that display dual nuclear and cytoplasmic
localizations and have been implicated in the
regulation of pre-mRNA splicing and in the control of
mRNA translation and deadenylation. CELF-3, expressed
in brain and testis only, is also known as bruno-like
protein 1 (BRUNOL-1), or CAG repeat protein 4, or
CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 3, or embryonic lethal
abnormal vision (ELAV)-type RNA-binding protein 1
(ETR-1), or expanded repeat domain protein CAG/CTG 4,
or trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 4 protein
(TNRC4). It plays an important role in the pathogenesis
of tauopathies. CELF-3 contains three highly conserved
RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains):
two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated in the
N-terminal region followed by a linker region and the
third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein. The effect of CELF-3 on tau splicing is
mediated mainly by the RNA-binding activity of RRM2.
The divergent linker region might mediate the
interaction of CELF-3 with other proteins regulating
its activity or involved in target recognition. CELF-4,
being highly expressed throughout the brain and in
glandular tissues, moderately expressed in heart,
skeletal muscle, and liver, is also known as bruno-like
protein 4 (BRUNOL-4), or CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor
4. Like CELF-3, CELF-4 also contain three highly
conserved RRMs. The splicing activation or repression
activity of CELF-4 on some specific substrates is
mediated by its RRM1/RRM2. On the other hand, both RRM1
and RRM2 of CELF-4 can activate cardiac troponin T
(cTNT) exon 5 inclusion. CELF-5, expressed in brain, is
also known as bruno-like protein 5 (BRUNOL-5), or
CUG-BP- and ETR-3-like factor 5. Although its
biological role remains unclear, CELF-5 shares same
domain architecture with CELF-3. CELF-6, being strongly
expressed in kidney, brain, and testis, is also known
as bruno-like protein 6 (BRUNOL-6), or CUG-BP- and
ETR-3-like factor 6. It activates exon inclusion of a
cardiac troponin T minigene in transient transfection
assays in a muscle-specific splicing enhancer
(MSE)-dependent manner and can activate inclusion via
multiple copies of a single element, MSE2. CELF-6 also
promotes skipping of exon 11 of insulin receptor, a
known target of CELF activity that is expressed in
kidney. In addition to three highly conserved RRMs,
CELF-6 also possesses numerous potential
phosphorylation sites, a potential nuclear localization
signal (NLS) at the C terminus, and an alanine-rich
region within the divergent linker region. .

Aly/REF family which includes THO complex subunit 4
(THOC4, also termed Aly/REF), S6K1 Aly/REF-like target
(SKAR, also termed PDIP3 or PDIP46) and similar
proteins. THOC4 is an mRNA transporter protein with a
well conserved RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed
RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein
domain). It is involved in RNA transportation from the
nucleus, and was initially identified as a
transcription coactivator of LEF-1 and AML-1 for the
TCRalpha enhancer function. In addition, THOC4
specifically binds to rhesus (RH) promoter in
erythroid, and might be a novel transcription cofactor
for erythroid-specific genes. SKAR shows high sequence
homology with THOC4 and possesses one RRM as well. SKAR
is widely expressed and localizes to the nucleus. It
may be a critical player in the function of S6K1 in
cell and organism growth control by binding the
activated, hyperphosphorylated form of S6K1 but not
S6K2. Furthermore, SKAR functions as a protein partner
of the p50 subunit of DNA polymerase delta. In
addition, SKAR may have particular importance in
pancreatic beta cell size determination and insulin
secretion. .

is a neural RNA-binding protein putatively expressed in
central nervous system (CNS) stem cells and neural
progenitor cells, and associated with asymmetric
divisions in neural progenitor cells. It is
evolutionarily conserved from invertebrates to
vertebrates. Musashi-1 is a homolog of Drosophila
Musashi and Xenopus laevis nervous system-specific RNP
protein-1 (Nrp-1). It has been implicated in the
maintenance of the stem-cell state, differentiation,
and tumorigenesis. It translationally regulates the
expression of a mammalian numb gene by binding to the
3'-untranslated region of mRNA of Numb, encoding a
membrane-associated inhibitor of Notch signaling, and
further influences neural development. Moreover,
Musashi-1 represses translation by interacting with the
poly(A)-binding protein and competes for binding of the
eukaryotic initiation factor-4G (eIF-4G). Musashi-2
(also termed Msi2) has been identified as a regulator
of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment and of
leukemic stem cells after transplantation of cells with
loss and gain of function of the gene. It influences
proliferation and differentiation of HSCs and myeloid
progenitors, and further modulates normal hematopoiesis
and promotes aggressive myeloid leukemia. Both,
Musashi-1 and Musashi-2, contain two conserved
N-terminal tandem RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also
termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains), along with other domains
of unknown function. .

It is involved in the regulation of mRNA splicing
probably via its complex formation with RNA-binding
protein with a serine-rich domain (RNPS1), a
pre-mRNA-splicing factor. SART3 has also been
identified as a nuclear Tat-interacting protein that

fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. It plays a
role in the pre-mRNA splicing process, but is not
essential for growth. Srp1p is closely related to the
SR protein family found in Metazoa. It contains an
N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD
(RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain),
a glycine hinge and a RS domain in the middle, and a
C-terminal domain. The family also includes a novel
group of arginine/serine (RS) or serine/arginine (SR)
splicing factors existing in plants, such as A.
thaliana RSp31, RSp35, RSp41 and similar proteins. Like
vertebrate RS splicing factors, these proteins function
as plant splicing factors and play crucial roles in
constitutive and alternative splicing in plants. They
all contain two RRMs at their N-terminus and an RS
domain at their C-terminus.

nucleolysin TIA-1 isoform p40 (p40-TIA-1 or TIA-1) and
nucleolysin TIA-1-related protein (TIAR), both of which
are granule-associated RNA binding proteins involved in

cells. TIA-1 and TIAR share high sequence similarity.
They are expressed in a wide variety of cell types.
TIA-1 can be phosphorylated by a serine/threonine
kinase that is activated during Fas-mediated apoptosis.
TIAR is mainly localized in the nucleus of
hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. It is
translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in
response to exogenous triggers of apoptosis. Both,
TIA-1 and TIAR, bind specifically to poly(A) but not to
poly(C) homopolymers. They are composed of three
N-terminal highly homologous RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains), and a glutamine-rich
C-terminal auxiliary domain containing a
lysosome-targeting motif. TIA-1 and TIAR interact with
RNAs containing short stretches of uridylates and their
RRM2 can mediate the specific binding to uridylate-rich
RNAs. The C-terminal auxiliary domain may be
responsible for interacting with other proteins. In
addition, TIA-1 and TIAR share a potential serine
protease-cleavage site (Phe-Val-Arg) localized at the
junction between their RNA binding domains and their
C-terminal auxiliary domains.

This subfamily corresponds to the RRM2 of Mei2-like
proteins from plant and fungi, terminal EAR1-like
proteins from plant, and other eukaryotic homologs.
Mei2-like proteins represent an ancient eukaryotic
RNA-binding proteins family whose corresponding
Mei2-like genes appear to have arisen early in
eukaryote evolution, been lost from some lineages such
as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and metazoans, and
diversified in the plant lineage. The plant Mei2-like
genes may function in cell fate specification during
development, rather than as stimulators of meiosis. In
the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the Mei2
protein is an essential component of the switch from
mitotic to meiotic growth. S. pombe Mei2 stimulates
meiosis in the nucleus upon binding a specific
non-coding RNA. The terminal EAR1-like protein 1 and 2
(TEL1 and TEL2) are mainly found in land plants. They
may play a role in the regulation of leaf initiation.
All members in this family are putative RNA-binding

family member CELF-1, CELF-2 and similar proteins.
This subgroup corresponds to the RRM2 of CELF-1 (also
termed BRUNOL-2, or CUG-BP1, or EDEN-BP), CELF-2 (also
termed BRUNOL-3, or ETR-3, or CUG-BP2, or NAPOR), both
of which belong to the CUGBP1 and ETR-3-like factors
(CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like) family of RNA-binding
proteins that have been implicated in the regulation of
pre-mRNA splicing and in the control of mRNA
translation and deadenylation. CELF-1 is strongly
expressed in all adult and fetal tissues tested. Human
CELF-1 is a nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA-binding protein
that regulates multiple aspects of nuclear and
cytoplasmic mRNA processing, with implications for
onset of type 1 myotonic dystrophy (DM1), a
neuromuscular disease associated with an unstable CUG
triplet expansion in the 3'-UTR (3'-untranslated
region) of the DMPK (myotonic dystrophy protein kinase)
gene; it preferentially targets UGU-rich mRNA elements.
It has been shown to bind to a Bruno response element,
a cis-element involved in translational control of
oskar mRNA in Drosophila, and share sequence similarity
to Bruno, the Drosophila protein that mediates this
process. The Xenopus homolog embryo deadenylation
element-binding protein (EDEN-BP) mediates
sequence-specific deadenylation of Eg5 mRNA. It binds
specifically to the EDEN motif in the 3'-untranslated
regions of maternal mRNAs and targets these mRNAs for
deadenylation and translational repression. CELF-1
contains three highly conserved RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also known as RBDs (RNA binding domains) or
RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains): two consecutive RRMs
(RRM1 and RRM2) situated in the N-terminal region
followed by a linker region and the third RRM (RRM3)
close to the C-terminus of the protein. The two
N-terminal RRMs of EDEN-BP are necessary for the
interaction with EDEN as well as a part of the linker
region (between RRM2 and RRM3). Oligomerization of
EDEN-BP is required for specific mRNA deadenylation and
binding. CELF-2 is expressed in all tissues at some
level, but highest in brain, heart, and thymus. It has
been implicated in the regulation of nuclear and
cytoplasmic RNA processing events, including
alternative splicing, RNA editing, stability and
translation. CELF-2 shares high sequence identity with
CELF-1, but shows different binding specificity; it
preferentially binds to sequences with UG repeats and
UGUU motifs. It has been shown to bind to a Bruno
response element, a cis-element involved in
translational control of oskar mRNA in Drosophila, and
share sequence similarity to Bruno, the Drosophila
protein that mediates this process. It also binds to
the 3'-UTR of cyclooxygenase-2 messages, affecting both
translation and mRNA stability, and binds to apoB mRNA,
regulating its C to U editing. CELF-2 also contains
three highly conserved RRMs. It binds to RNA via the
first two RRMs, which are also important for
localization in the cytoplasm. The splicing activation
or repression activity of CELF-2 on some specific
substrates is mediated by RRM1/RRM2. Both, RRM1 and
RRM2 of CELF-2, can activate cardiac troponin T (cTNT)
exon 5 inclusion. In addition, CELF-2 possesses a
typical arginine and lysine-rich nuclear localization
signal (NLS) in the C-terminus, within RRM3. .

PTB-binding raver-1, raver-2 and similar proteins.
This subfamily corresponds to the RRM3 of raver-1 and
raver-2. Raver-1 is a ubiquitously expressed
heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) that
serves as a co-repressor of the nucleoplasmic splicing
repressor polypyrimidine tract-binding protein
(PTB)-directed splicing of select mRNAs. It shuttles
between the cytoplasm and the nucleus and can
accumulate in the perinucleolar compartment, a dynamic
nuclear substructure that harbors PTB. Raver-1 also
modulates focal adhesion assembly by binding to the
cytoskeletal proteins, including alpha-actinin,
vinculin, and metavinculin (an alternatively spliced
isoform of vinculin) at adhesion complexes,
particularly in differentiated muscle tissue. Raver-2
is a novel member of the heterogeneous nuclear
ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family. It shows high
sequence homology to raver-1. Raver-2 exerts a
spatio-temporal expression pattern during embryogenesis
and is mainly limited to differentiated neurons and
glia cells. Although it displays nucleo-cytoplasmic
shuttling in heterokaryons, raver2 localizes to the
nucleus in glia cells and neurons. Raver-2 can interact
with PTB and may participate in PTB-mediated
RNA-processing. However, there is no evidence
indicating that raver-2 can bind to cytoplasmic
proteins. Both, raver-1 and raver-2, contain three
N-terminal RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed
RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein
domains), two putative nuclear localization signals
(NLS) at the N- and C-termini, a central leucine-rich
region, and a C-terminal region harboring two
[SG][IL]LGxxP motifs. They binds to RNA through the
RRMs. In addition, the two [SG][IL]LGxxP motifs serve
as the PTB-binding motifs in raver1. However, raver-2
interacts with PTB through the SLLGEPP motif only. .

protein, and a cytotoxic granule-associated RNA-binding
protein that shows high sequence similarity with 40-kDa
isoform of T-cell-restricted intracellular antigen-1
(p40-TIA-1). TIAR is mainly localized in the nucleus of
hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. It is
translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in
response to exogenous triggers of apoptosis. TIAR
possesses nucleolytic activity against cytolytic
lymphocyte (CTL) target cells. It can trigger DNA
fragmentation in permeabilized thymocytes, and thus may
function as an effector responsible for inducing
apoptosis. TIAR is composed of three N-terminal highly
homologous RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed
RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein
domains), and a glutamine-rich C-terminal auxiliary
domain containing a lysosome-targeting motif. It
interacts with RNAs containing short stretches of
uridylates and its RRM2 can mediate the specific
binding to uridylate-rich RNAs. .

>gnl|CDD|241082 cd12638, RRM3_CELF1_2, RNA recognition motif 3 in CUGBP Elav-like
family member CELF-1, CELF-2 and similar proteins.
This subgroup corresponds to the RRM3 of CELF-1 (also
termed BRUNOL-2, or CUG-BP1, or EDEN-BP) and CELF-2
(also termed BRUNOL-3, or ETR-3, or CUG-BP2, or NAPOR),
both of which belong to the CUGBP1 and ETR-3-like
factors (CELF) or BRUNOL (Bruno-like) family of
RNA-binding proteins that have been implicated in the
regulation of pre-mRNA splicing and in the control of
mRNA translation and deadenylation. CELF-1 is strongly
expressed in all adult and fetal tissues tested. Human
CELF-1 is a nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA-binding protein
that regulates multiple aspects of nuclear and
cytoplasmic mRNA processing, with implications for
onset of type 1 myotonic dystrophy (DM1), a
neuromuscular disease associated with an unstable CUG
triplet expansion in the 3'-UTR (3'-untranslated
region) of the DMPK (myotonic dystrophy protein kinase)
gene; it preferentially targets UGU-rich mRNA elements.
It has been shown to bind to a Bruno response element,
a cis-element involved in translational control of
oskar mRNA in Drosophila, and share sequence similarity
to Bruno, the Drosophila protein that mediates this
process. The Xenopus homolog embryo deadenylation
element-binding protein (EDEN-BP) mediates
sequence-specific deadenylation of Eg5 mRNA. It
specifically binds to the EDEN motif in the
3'-untranslated regions of maternal mRNAs and targets
these mRNAs for deadenylation and translational
repression. CELF-1 contain three highly conserved RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains):
two consecutive RRMs (RRM1 and RRM2) situated in the
N-terminal region followed by a linker region and the
third RRM (RRM3) close to the C-terminus of the
protein. The two N-terminal RRMs of EDEN-BP are
necessary for the interaction with EDEN as well as a
part of the linker region (between RRM2 and RRM3).
Oligomerization of EDEN-BP is required for specific
mRNA deadenylation and binding. CELF-2 is expressed in
all tissues at some level, but highest in brain, heart,
and thymus. It has been implicated in the regulation of
nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA processing events,
including alternative splicing, RNA editing, stability
and translation. CELF-2 shares high sequence identity
with CELF-1, but shows different binding specificity;
it binds preferentially to sequences with UG repeats
and UGUU motifs. It has been shown to bind to a Bruno
response element, a cis-element involved in
translational control of oskar mRNA in Drosophila, and
share sequence similarity to Bruno, the Drosophila
protein that mediates this process. It also binds to
the 3'-UTR of cyclooxygenase-2 messages, affecting both
translation and mRNA stability, and binds to apoB mRNA,
regulating its C to U editing. CELF-2 also contain
three highly conserved RRMs. It binds to RNA via the
first two RRMs, which are important for localization in
the cytoplasm. The splicing activation or repression
activity of CELF-2 on some specific substrates is
mediated by RRM1/RRM2. Both, RRM1 and RRM2 of CELF-2,
can activate cardiac troponin T (cTNT) exon 5
inclusion. In addition, CELF-2 possesses a typical
arginine and lysine-rich nuclear localization signal
(NLS) in the C-terminus, within RRM3. .

It is involved in the regulation of mRNA splicing
probably via its complex formation with RNA-binding
protein with a serine-rich domain (RNPS1), a

polyadenylation reaction, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization by influencing the rate of deadenylation
and inhibition of mRNA decapping. The family represents
type I polyadenylate-binding proteins (PABPs),

polyadenylate-binding protein 4-like (PABP-4-like or
PABPC4L), yeast polyadenylate-binding protein,
cytoplasmic and nuclear (PABP or ACBP-67), and similar
proteins. PABP-1 is a ubiquitously expressed
multifunctional protein that may play a role in 3' end
formation of mRNA, translation initiation, mRNA
stabilization, protection of poly(A) from nuclease
activity, mRNA deadenylation, inhibition of mRNA
decapping, and mRNP maturation. Although PABP-1 is
thought to be a cytoplasmic protein, it is also found
in the nucleus. PABP-1 may be involved in
nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and utilization of mRNP
particles. PABP-1 contains four copies of RNA
recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), a
less well conserved linker region, and a proline-rich
C-terminal conserved domain (CTD). PABP-3 is a
testis-specific poly(A)-binding protein specifically
expressed in round spermatids. It is mainly found in
mammalian and may play an important role in the
testis-specific regulation of mRNA homeostasis. PABP-3
shows significant sequence similarity to PABP-1.
However, it binds to poly(A) with a lower affinity than
PABP-1. Moreover, PABP-1 possesses an A-rich sequence
in its 5'-UTR and allows binding of PABP and blockage
of translation of its own mRNA. In contrast, PABP-3
lacks the A-rich sequence in its 5'-UTR. PABP-4 is an
inducible poly(A)-binding protein (iPABP) that is
primarily localized to the cytoplasm. It shows
significant sequence similarity to PABP-1 as well. The
RNA binding properties of PABP-1 and PABP-4 appear to
be identical. PABP-5 is encoded by PABPC5 gene within
the X-specific subinterval, and expressed in fetal
brain and in a range of adult tissues in mammalian,
such as ovary and testis. It may play an important role
in germ cell development. Unlike other PABPs, PABP-5
contains only four RRMs, but lacks both the linker
region and the CTD. PABP-1-like and PABP-1-like 2 are
the orthologs of PABP-1. PABP-4-like is the ortholog of
PABP-5. Their cellular functions remain unclear. The
family also includes the yeast PABP, a conserved
poly(A) binding protein containing poly(A) tails that
can be attached to the 3'-ends of mRNAs. The yeast PABP
and its homologs may play important roles in the
initiation of translation and in mRNA decay. Like
vertebrate PABP-1, the yeast PABP contains four RRMs, a
linker region, and a proline-rich CTD as well. The
first two RRMs are mainly responsible for specific
binding to poly(A). The proline-rich region may be
involved in protein-protein interactions. .

and glutamine-rich splicing factor, or 100 kDa
DNA-pairing protein (POMp100), or 100 kDa subunit of
DNA-binding p52/p100 complex, a multifunctional protein
that mediates diverse activities in the cell. It is
ubiquitously expressed and highly conserved in
vertebrates. PSF binds not only RNA but also both
single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA
(dsDNA) and facilitates the renaturation of
complementary ssDNAs. Besides, it promotes the
formation of D-loops in superhelical duplex DNA, and is
involved in cell proliferation. PSF can also interact
with multiple factors. It is an RNA-binding component
of spliceosomes and binds to insulin-like growth factor
response element (IGFRE). PSF functions as a
transcriptional repressor interacting with Sin3A and
mediating silencing through the recruitment of histone
deacetylases (HDACs) to the DNA binding domain (DBD) of
nuclear hormone receptors. Additionally, PSF is an
essential pre-mRNA splicing factor and is dissociated
from PTB and binds to U1-70K and serine-arginine (SR)
proteins during apoptosis. PSF forms a heterodimer with
the nuclear protein p54nrb, also known as non-POU
domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NonO). The
PSF/p54nrb complex displays a variety of functions,
such as DNA recombination and RNA synthesis,
processing, and transport. PSF contains two conserved
RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA
binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains),
which are responsible for interactions with RNA and for
the localization of the protein in speckles. It also
contains an N-terminal region rich in proline, glycine,
and glutamine residues, which may play a role in
interactions recruiting other molecules. .

(SR proteins family), which is involved in
bridge-complex formation and splicing by mediating
protein-protein interactions across either introns or
exons. It is a unique SR family member and it may play
a crucial role in determining tissue specific patterns
of alternative splicing. SREK1 can alter splice site
selection by both positively and negatively modulating
the activity of other SR proteins. For instance, SREK1
can activate SRp20 and repress SC35 in a dose-dependent
manner both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, SREK1
contains two (some contain only one) RNA recognition

(PMET) through catalyzing electron transport from
plasma membrane quinones to extracellular oxygen,
forming water as a product. They are also hydroquinone
oxidases that oxidize externally supplied NADH, hence
NOX. ENOX proteins harbor a di-copper center that lack

been identified as the substrate for MAPKAP-K2 and may
be involved in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced
post-transcriptional regulation of tumor necrosis
factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and
macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP-2). hnRNP A1 is
an abundant eukaryotic nuclear RNA-binding protein that

splicing. hnRNP A2/B1 is an RNA trafficking response
element-binding protein that interacts with the hnRNP
A2 response element (A2RE). Many mRNAs, such as myelin
basic protein (MBP), myelin-associated oligodendrocytic
basic protein (MOBP), carboxyanhydrase II (CAII),

small nuclear ribonucleoprotein B" (U2 snRNP B" or
U2B"), all of which consist of two RNA recognition
motifs (RRMs) connected by a variable, flexible linker.
SNF is an RNA-binding protein found in the U1 and U2
snRNPs of Drosophila where it is essential in sex
determination and possesses a novel dual RNA binding
specificity. SNF binds with high affinity to both
Drosophila U1 snRNA stem-loop II (SLII) and U2 snRNA
stem-loop IV (SLIV). It can also bind to poly(U) RNA
tracts flanking the alternatively spliced Sex-lethal
(Sxl) exon, as does Drosophila Sex-lethal protein
(SXL). U1A is an RNA-binding protein associated with
the U1 snRNP, a small RNA-protein complex involved in
pre-mRNA splicing. U1A binds with high affinity and
specificity to stem-loop II (SLII) of U1 snRNA. It is
predominantly a nuclear protein that shuttles between
the nucleus and the cytoplasm independently of
interactions with U1 snRNA. Moreover, U1A may be
involved in RNA 3'-end processing, specifically
cleavage, splicing and polyadenylation, through
interacting with a large number of non-snRNP proteins.
U2B", initially identified to bind to stem-loop IV
(SLIV) at the 3' end of U2 snRNA, is a unique protein
that comprises of the U2 snRNP. Additional research
indicates U2B" binds to U1 snRNA stem-loop II (SLII) as
well and shows no preference for SLIV or SLII on the
basis of binding affinity. U2B" does not require an
auxiliary protein for binding to RNA and its nuclear
transport is independent on U2 snRNA binding. .

the RRM of FET (previously TET) (FUS/TLS, EWS, TAF15)
family of RNA-binding proteins. This ubiquitously

predominantly localizing to the nuclear, includes FUS
(also known as TLS or Pigpen or hnRNP P2), EWS (also
known as EWSR1), TAF15 (also known as hTAFII68 or TAF2N
or RPB56), and Drosophila Cabeza (also known as SARFH).
The corresponding coding genes of these proteins are
involved in deleterious genomic rearrangements with
transcription factor genes in a variety of human
sarcomas and acute leukemias. All FET proteins interact
with each other and are therefore likely to be part of
the very same protein complexes, which suggests a
general bridging role for FET proteins coupling RNA
transcription, processing, transport, and DNA repair.
The FET proteins contain multiple copies of a
degenerate hexapeptide repeat motif at the N-terminus.
The C-terminal region consists of a conserved nuclear
import and retention signal (C-NLS), a putative
zinc-finger domain, and a conserved RNA recognition
motif (RRM), also known as RBD (RNA binding domain) or
RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), which is flanked by 3

Musashi-2 (also termed Msi2) which has been identified
as a regulator of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC)
compartment and of leukemic stem cells after
transplantation of cells with loss and gain of function
of the gene. It influences proliferation and
differentiation of HSCs and myeloid progenitors, and
further modulates normal hematopoiesis and promotes
aggressive myeloid leukemia. Musashi-2 contains two
conserved N-terminal tandem RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains), along with other domains
of unknown function. .

PIP5K1A-regulated poly(A) polymerase (Star-PAP) and
similar proteins. This subfamily corresponds to the
RRM of Star-PAP, also termed RNA-binding motif protein
21 (RBM21), which is a ubiquitously expressed U6
snRNA-specific terminal uridylyltransferase (U6-TUTase)
essential for cell proliferation. Although it belongs
to the well-characterized poly(A) polymerase protein
superfamily, Star-PAP is highly divergent from both,
the poly(A) polymerase (PAP) and the terminal uridylyl
transferase (TUTase), identified within the editing
complexes of trypanosomes. Star-PAP predominantly
localizes at nuclear speckles and catalyzes
RNA-modifying nucleotidyl transferase reactions. It
functions in mRNA biosynthesis and may be regulated by
phosphoinositides. It binds to glutathione
S-transferase (GST)-PIPKIalpha. Star-PAP preferentially
uses ATP as a nucleotide substrate and possesses PAP
activity that is stimulated by PtdIns4,5P2. It contains
an N-terminal C2H2-type zinc finger motif followed by
an RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA
binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), a
split PAP domain linked by a proline-rich region, a PAP
catalytic and core domain, a PAP-associated domain, an
RS repeat, and a nuclear localization signal (NLS). .

with serine-rich domain 1 (RNPS1) and similar proteins.
This subfamily corresponds to the RRM of RNPS1 and its
eukaryotic homologs. RNPS1, also termed RNA-binding
protein prevalent during the S phase, or SR-related
protein LDC2, was originally characterized as a general
pre-mRNA splicing activator, which activates both
constitutive and alternative splicing of pre-mRNA in
vitro.It has been identified as a protein component of
the splicing-dependent mRNP complex, or exon-exon
junction complex (EJC), and is directly involved in
mRNA surveillance. Furthermore, RNPS1 is a splicing
regulator whose activator function is controlled in
part by CK2 (casein kinase II) protein kinase
phosphorylation. It can also function as a
squamous-cell carcinoma antigen recognized by T cells-3
(SART3)-binding protein, and is involved in the
regulation of mRNA splicing. RNPS1 contains an
N-terminal serine-rich (S) domain, a central RNA
recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding
domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), and the
C-terminal arginine/serine/proline-rich (RS/P) domain.

VICKZ family that have been implicated in the
post-transcriptional regulation of several different
RNAs and in subcytoplasmic localization of mRNAs during
embryogenesis. IGF2BPs are composed of two RNA

cytoplasmic polyadenylated RNA-binding protein PUB1 and
similar proteins. This subgroup corresponds to the
RRM1 of yeast protein PUB1, also termed ARS
consensus-binding protein ACBP-60, or poly
uridylate-binding protein, or poly(U)-binding protein.
PUB1 has been identified as both, a heterogeneous
nuclear RNA-binding protein (hnRNP) and a cytoplasmic
mRNA-binding protein (mRNP), which may be stably bound
to a translationally inactive subpopulation of mRNAs
within the cytoplasm. It is distributed in both, the
nucleus and the cytoplasm, and binds to poly(A)+ RNA
(mRNA or pre-mRNA). Although it is one of the major
cellular proteins cross-linked by UV light to
polyadenylated RNAs in vivo, PUB1 is nonessential for
cell growth in yeast. PUB1 also binds to T-rich single
stranded DNA (ssDNA); however, there is no strong
evidence implicating PUB1 in the mechanism of DNA
replication. PUB1 contains three RNA recognition motifs
(RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs
(ribonucleoprotein domains), and a GAR motif (glycine
and arginine rich stretch) that is located between RRM2
and RRM3. .

>gnl|CDD|238413 cd00798, INT_XerDC, XerD and XerC integrases, DNA
breaking-rejoining enzymes, N- and C-terminal domains.
XerD-like integrases are involved in the site-specific
integration and excision of lysogenic bacteriophage
genomes, transposition of conjugative transposons,
termination of chromosomal replication, and stable
plasmid inheritance. They share the same fold in their
catalytic domain containing six conserved active site
residues and the overall reaction mechanism with the DNA
breaking-rejoining enzyme superfamily. In Escherichia
coli, the Xer site-specific recombination system acts to
convert dimeric chromosomes, which are formed by
homologous recombination to monomers. Two related
recombinases, XerC and XerD, bind cooperatively to a
recombination site present in the E. coli chromosome.
Each recombinase catalyzes the exchange of one pair of
DNA strand in a reaction that proceeds through a
Holliday junction intermediate. These enzymes can bridge
two different and well-separated DNA sequences called
arm- and core-sites. The C-terminal domain binds,
cleaves and re-ligates DNA strands at the core-sites,
while the N-terminal domain is largely responsible for
high-affinity binding to the arm-type sites.

It facilitates U6 RNA base-pairing with U4 RNA during
spliceosome assembly. Prp24 specifically binds free U6
RNA primarily with RRMs 1 and 2 and facilitates pairing
of U6 RNA bases with U4 RNA bases. Additionally, it may
also be involved in dissociation of the U4/U6 complex
during spliceosome activation. .
