Protein Domain : RNPS1, RNA recognition motif

Primary Identifier  IPR034201 Type  Domain
Short Name  RNPS1_RRM
description  This entry represents the RNA recognition motif (RRM) of RNPS1 and its eukaryotic homologues. RNPS1 was originally characterised as a general pre-mRNA splicing activator, which activates both constitutive and alternative splicing of pre-mRNA in vitro []. It has been identified as a protein component of the splicing-dependent mRNP complex, or exon-exon junction complex (EJC), and is directly involved in mRNA surveillance [, ]. Furthermore, RNPS1 is a splicing regulator whose activator function is controlled in part by CK2 (casein kinase II) protein kinase phosphorylation []. It can also function as a squamous-cell carcinoma antigen recognized by T cells-3 (SART3)-binding protein, and is involved in the regulation of mRNA splicing []. RNPS1 contains an N-terminal serine-rich (S) domain, a central RNA recognition motif (RRM), and the C-terminal arginine/serine/proline-rich (R/S/P) domain.
