RNA-binding protein 24; Multifunctional RNA-binding protein involved in the regulation of pre-mRNA splicing, mRNA stability and mRNA translation important for cell fate decision and differentiation. Plays a major role in pre-mRNA alternative splicing regulation. Mediates preferentially muscle-specific exon inclusion in numerous mRNAs important for striated cardiac and skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Binds to intronic splicing enhancer (ISE) composed of stretches of GU-rich motifs localized in flanking intron of exon that will be included by alternative splicing. Involved in embry [...]

Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2; Chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair. It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)- containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC).

RNA-binding protein Nova-1; Functions to regulate alternative splicing in neurons by binding pre-mRNA in a sequence-specific manner to activate exon inclusion. It binds specifically to the sequence UCAUY. Most likely acts to activate the inclusion of exon E3A in the glycine receptor alpha-2 chain and of exon E9 in gamma-aminobutyric-acid receptor gamma- 2 subunit via a distal downstream UCAU-rich intronic splicing enhancer.

Muscleblind-like protein 1; Mediates pre-mRNA alternative splicing regulation. Acts either as activator or repressor of splicing on specific pre-mRNA targets. Inhibits cardiac troponin-T (TNNT2) pre-mRNA exon inclusion but induces insulin receptor (IR) pre-mRNA exon inclusion in muscle. Antagonizes the alternative splicing activity pattern of CELF proteins. Regulates the TNNT2 exon 5 skipping through competition with U2AF2. Inhibits the formation of the spliceosome A complex on intron 4 of TNNT2 pre-mRNA. Binds to the stem-loop structure within the polypyrimidine tract of TNNT2 intron [...]

Protein quaking; RNA-binding protein that plays a central role in myelinization. Also required for visceral endoderm function and blood vessel development. Binds to the 5'-NACUAAY-N(1,20)- UAAY-3' RNA core sequence. Acts by regulating pre- mRNA splicing, mRNA export, mRNA stability and protein translation, as well as cellular processes including apoptosis, cell cycle, glial cell fate and development. Required to protect and promote stability of mRNAs such as MBP and CDKN1B which promotes oligodendrocyte differentiation. Participates in mRNA transport by regulating the nuclear export of [...]

NOVA alternative-splicing regulator 2.

ELAV-like protein 4; RNA-binding protein that is involved in the post- transcriptional regulation of mRNAs. Plays a role in the regulation of mRNA stability, alternative splicing and translation. Binds to AU-rich element (ARE) sequences in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of target mRNAs, including GAP43, VEGF, FOS, CDKN1A and ACHE mRNA (By similarity). Many of the target mRNAs are coding for RNA-binding proteins, transcription factors and proteins involved in RNA processing and/or neuronal development and function. By binding to the mRNA 3'UTR, decreases mRNA deadenylation and there [...]

Polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 2; 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. In addition to its function in pre-mRNA splicing, plays also a role in the regulation of translation.

ELAV-like protein 2; RNA-binding protein that binds to the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of target mRNAs. Seems to recognize a GAAA motif. Can bind to its own 3'UTR, the FOS 3'UTR and the ID 3'UTR ; Belongs to the RRM elav family.
