Expression and tumor-promoting effects of caprin-1 in human glioma
Background: Cytoplasmic activation/proliferation-associated protein-1 (caprin-1) is a newly discovered RNA-binding protein and is now recognized as one of the putative oncogenes.

Role of caprin-1 in carcinogenesis. [PDF]
RNA-binding proteins serve an essential role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Cytoplasmic activation/proliferation-associated protein-1 (caprin-1) is an RNA-binding protein that participates in the regulation of cell cycle control-associated genes.

Defining the Caprin-1 Interactome in Unstressed and Stressed Conditions. [PDF]
AbstractCytoplasmic stress granules (SGs) are dynamic non-membranous foci containing translationally arrested mRNA and RNA binding proteins that form in response to a variety of cellular stressors. SGs may evolve into the cytoplasmic inclusions observed in many neurodegenerative diseases.

Crystal structure of a dimerization domain of human Caprin-1: insights into the assembly of an evolutionarily conserved ribonucleoprotein complex consisting of Caprin-1, FMRP and G3BP1. [PDF]
Caprin-1 plays roles in many important biological processes, including cellular proliferation, innate immune response, stress response and synaptic plasticity. Caprin-1 has been implicated in several human diseases, including osteosarcoma, breast cancer, viral infection, hearing loss and neurodegenerative disorders.

Yin and yang regulation of stress granules by Caprin-1. [PDF]
Stress granules (SGs) are cytoplasmic biomolecular condensates containing proteins and RNAs in response to stress. Ras-GTPase–activating protein binding protein 1 (G3BP1) is a core SG protein. Caprin-1 and ubiquitin specific peptidase 10 (USP10) interact with G3BP1, facilitating and suppressing SG formation, respectively.

THE ROLE OF CAPRIN-1 PROTEIN DYSREGULATION IN SYNAPSE DECLINE LEADING TO PROGRESSION OF TAUOPATHIES [PDF]
Abstract Many neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by accumulation of proteins such as tau, a microtubule stabilization protein. Toxic tau forms tangles and affects neuronal synapse function, an early step of neurodegeneration. To focus on synapse function, we highlighted Caprin-1 protein.
