IMP1 KH1 and KH2 domains create a structural platform with unique RNA recognition and re-modelling properties
Structural highlights
Function[IF2B1_HUMAN] RNA-binding factor that affects mRNA nuclear export, localization, stability and translation. Component of the CRD-mediated complex that promotes MYC mRNA stabilization. Regulates mRNA stability during the integrated cellular stress response (ISR) in stress granules (SGs). Stabilizes the BTRC/FBW1A mRNA from degradation by disrupting miRNA-dependent interaction with AGO2. Identified in a HCV IRES-mediated translation complex, that enhances translation at the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA-replicon via the internal ribosome entry site (IRES), but does not affect 5'cap-dependent translation. Acts as a HIV-1 retrovirus restriction factor that reduces HIV-1 assembly by inhibiting viral RNA packaging, assembly and processing of HIV-1 GAG protein on cellular membranes. Binds to mRNAs in stress granules (SGs). Binds to the stem-loop IV of the 5'-UTR and to the variable region and the poly(U-C) motif of the 3'-UTR of the HCV RNA-replicon. Binds to the 5'-UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA and regulates its subcellular localization and translation. Binds both to the coding region mRNA stability determinant (CRD) and to AU-rich sequences in the 3'-UTR of the MYC and CD44 mRNAs and stabilizes these mRNAs. Binds to the fourth and fifth exons of the oncofetal H19 and neuron-specific TAU mRNAs and regulates their localizations. Binds to the adenine-rich autoregulatory sequence (ARS) 5'-UTR of the PABPC1 mRNA and is involved in its translational repression. The RNA-binding activity to ARS is stimulated by PABPC1. Binds to the coding sequence region of BTRC/FBW1A mRNA and mediates stabilization of BTRC/FBW1A and MYC mRNAs in response to beta-catenin signaling. Binding to RNA employs a cooperative, sequential mechanism of homo- or heterodimerisation. Also involved in growth or survival of lung-cancer cells. Protects the MYC and MDR-1 mRNAs from cleavage by a endoribonuclease, thus prolonging their stabilities (By similarity). Binds to the 3'-UTR axonal localization signal (ALS) of TAU mRNA (By similarity). Binds to a conserved 54-nucleotide element in the 3'-UTR of the beta actin mRNA known as the 'zipcode' (By similarity). Promotes translocation of the beta-actin mRNA to dendrites (By similarity). May act as a regulator of mRNA transport to activated synapses in response to synaptic activity (By similarity).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] Publication Abstract from PubMedIGF2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IMP1) is a key regulator of messenger RNA (mRNA) metabolism and transport in organismal development and, in cancer, its mis-regulation is an important component of tumour metastasis. IMP1 function relies on the recognition of a diverse set of mRNA targets that is mediated by the combinatorial action of multiple RNA-binding domains. Here, we dissect the structure and RNA-binding properties of two key RNA-binding domains of IMP1, KH1 and KH2, and we build a kinetic model for the recognition of RNA targets. Our data and model explain how the two domains are organized as an intermolecular pseudo-dimer and that the important role they play in mRNA target recognition is underpinned by the high RNA-binding affinity and fast kinetics of this KH1KH2-RNA recognition unit. Importantly, the high-affinity RNA-binding by KH1KH2 is achieved by an inter-domain coupling 50-fold stronger than that existing in a second pseudo-dimer in the protein, KH3KH4. The presence of this strong coupling supports a role of RNA re-modelling in IMP1 recognition of known cancer targets.
