Structural highlights
Function
[MRB1_YEAST] RNA-binding protein that acts as a post-transcriptional regulator of phosphate metabolism by binding to the 3'-UTR region of PHO4 mRNA, decreasing its stability. Acts by recognizing and binding N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs, a modification present at internal sites of mRNAs and some non-coding RNAs.[1] [2]
