Short Name | HuC_RRM3 |
description | This entry represents the RNA recognition motif 3 (RRM3) of HuC (also known as ELAV-like protein 3), one of the neuronal members of the Hu family. The neuronal Hu proteins play important roles in neuronal differentiation, plasticity and memory []. Like other Hu proteins, HuC contains three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). RRM1 and RRM2 may cooperate in binding to an AU-rich RNA element (ARE) []. The AU-rich element binding of HuC can be inhibited by flavonoids. 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 []. |
