2mju
From Proteopedia
Contents |
Solution structure of a C terminal fragment of the neuronal isoform of the polypyrimidine tract binding protein (nPTB)
Function
[PTBP2_HUMAN] RNA-binding protein which binds to intronic polypyrimidine tracts and mediates negative regulation of exons splicing. May antagonize in a tissue-specific manner the ability of NOVA1 to activate exon selection. Beside its function in pre-mRNA splicing, plays also a role in the regulation of translation. Isoform 5 has a reduced affinity for RNA.[1] [2]
About this Structure
