RNA-binding proteins in human genetic disease.
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key components in RNA metabolism, regulating the temporal, spatial and functional dynamics of RNAs. Altering the expression of RBPs has profound implications for cellular physiology, affecting RNA processes from pre-mRNA splicing to protein translation. Recent genetic and proteomic data and evidence from animal models reveal that RBPs are involved in many human d...
متن کاملGuardian of Genetic Messenger-RNA-Binding Proteins.
RNA in cells is always associated with RNA-binding proteins that regulate all aspects of RNA metabolism including RNA splicing, export from the nucleus, RNA localization, mRNA turn-over as well as translation. Given their diverse functions, cells express a variety of RNA-binding proteins, which play important roles in the pathologies of a number of diseases. In this review we focus on the effec...
متن کاملFunctional interplay between the jaw domain of bacterial RNA polymerase and allele-specific residues in the product RNA-binding pocket.
Bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) is a complex molecular machine in which the network of interacting parts and their movements, including contacts to nascent RNA and the DNA template, are at best partially understood. The jaw domain is a part of RNAP that makes a key contact to duplex DNA as it enters the enzyme from downstream and also contacts two other parts of RNAP, the trigger loop, which li...
متن کاملRNA-binding proteins.
The C. elegans genome encodes many RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) with diverse functions in development, indicative of extensive layers of post-transcriptional control of RNA metabolism. A number of C. elegans RBPs have been identified by forward or reverse genetics. They tend to display tissue-specific mutant phenotypes, which underscore their functional importance. In addition, several RBPs that...
متن کاملRNA-binding proteins: TRAPping RNA bases
In Bacillus subtilis, tryptophan biosynthesis is regulated by a mechanism called attenuation. The new crystal structure of the 'trp RNA binding attenuation protein', TRAP, in complex with RNA has provided new structural insights into how proteins can bind RNA to regulate transcription and translation.
