Nuclear RNA-binding Proteins

1991
Publisher Summary The control of gene expression involves several steps at which specific sequences in pre-mRNA transcripts, as well as those in small RNA molecules, are recognized by proteins. RNA-binding proteins can be expected to mediate interactions in a variety of cellular processes, including those occurring in the transcription complex, the ...

Drosophila RNA Binding Proteins

2006
RNA binding proteins are fundamental mediators of gene expression. The use of the model organism Drosophila has helped to elucidate both tissue-specific and ubiquitous functions of RNA binding proteins. These proteins mediate all aspects of the mRNA lifespan including splicing, nucleocytoplasmic transport, localization, stability, translation, and ...

RNA binding proteins and selenocysteine

BioFactors, 2001
AbstractSelenocysteine is incorporated into protein by a complex co‐translational mechanism that involves both cis and trans acting factors. Among the trans‐acting factors are RNA binding proteins that interact with the selenoprotein 3′ UTRs at a sequence known as the selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS). These factors are generally referred to as

Purification of RNA-Binding Proteins

2014
The majority of regulatory RNA sequences exert their function through interaction with proteins. Therefore, the identification of RNA-binding proteins is the key step in understanding the role of many RNA motifs. Here, we describe a straightforward method to identify RNA-binding proteins.

RNA-binding proteins in RNA interference

Molecular Biology, 2006
Short RNAs (21–27 nt) silence genes that contain homologous nucleotide sequences; this is known as RNA silencing. This review considers the generation of short RNAs from their precursors: double-stranded RNAs, capable of inducing RNA interference, and hairpin RNAs, whose processing yields microRNAs, as well as the properties of RNA-binding domains that

Polypyrimidine-tract-binding protein: a multifunctional RNA-binding protein

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2008
PTB (polypyrimidine-tract-binding protein) is a ubiquitous RNA-binding protein. It was originally identified as a protein with a role in splicing but it is now known to function in a large number of diverse cellular processes including polyadenylation, mRNA stability and translation initiation.

Single stranded RNA binding proteins

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2000
Our knowledge of protein interactions with RNA molecules has been, so far, largely restricted to cases in which the RNA itself is folded into a secondary and/or tertiary structure stabilised by intramolecular base pairing and stacking. Until recently, only limited structural information has been available about protein interactions with single-stranded

RNA-binding proteins tamed

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 1998
Novel RNA-binding proteins with customized specificities can be isolated by genetic selection from combinatorial libraries. Such proteins have great potential as agents for targeted manipulation of gene expression.

The RNA-binding proteins

2015
This chapter details how RNA-binding proteins package RNA, protect RNA, organize RNA, and prepare RNA for post-transcriptional processes. It describes different kinds of RNA-binding and auxiliary domains that enable RNA-binding proteins to bind RNA in a versatile way.
