Human Poly(A) Binding Protein (1CVJ)

Background

The Human Poly(A) Binding Protein (PABP) was discovered in 1973 by the use of a sedimentation profile detailing the RNase digestion differentiated the PABP protein. [1] Attempts to purify the 75 kDa protein then followed. In 1983, then considered “poly(A)-organizing protein,” was determined and purified by molecular weight, ligand-binding affinity, and amounts found in cytoplasmic portions of cell with ability to bind to free poly(A). [2]


PABP is a mRNA binding protein that binds to the 3’ Poly(A) tail on mRNA. It is comprised of four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), which are highly conserved RNA-binding domains.[3] The RRM in PABP is found in over two hundred families of proteins across species, indicating that it is ancient.[3] Through extensive Adenosine recognition by the RRMs of PABP, the protein is involved in three main functions: recognition of the 3’ Poly(A) tail, mRNA stabilization, and eukaryotic translation initiation. The contributions of controlling gene expression via different families of PABPs is not yet fully understood. PABP families are divided into nuclear and cytoplasmic. [4] PABP1, which is predominantly cytoplasmic, is often referred to as PABP because it is the only form of PABP that has been extensively studied in its role with mRNA translation and stability. [4]
