RNA-binding proteins: modular design for efficient function

Abstract: Many RNA-binding proteins have modular structures, being composed of multiple repeats of just a few basic domains that are arranged in a variety of ways to satisfy their diverse functional requirements. Recent studies have investigated how different modules cooperate in regulating the RNA binding specificity and the biological activity of these proteins. They have also investigated how multiple modules cooperate with enzymatic domains to regulate the catalytic activity of enzymes acting upon RNA. These studies… Show more

“…The heterogeneity in the functions of these proteins is due to the presence of different RNA binding domains that recognize RNA. RBPs are built with multiple copies of a unique domain or a mosaic of different domains that confer specificity and affinity [29]. Hence, identifying the presence of various domains can provide clues to novel functions of RBPs.…”

“…Given the ability of RBPs to recognize multiple targets (reviewed in Lunde et al, 2007), it is not surprising that secondary protein-protein or RNA-protein bridges could facilitate IRES activity. An illustrative example of a functional protein-protein bridge is provided by the splicing factor SRp20 ( Fig.…”
