This entry represents several divergent cold-shock domains found in the CSDE1 protein. The CSDE1 family comprises RNA-binding proteins that play a crucial role in translationally coupled mRNA turnover. Members are involved in the cytoplasmic deadenylation, translation, and decay processes, particularly interacting with the mCRD domain of FOS mRNA. They are essential for the efficient formation of stress granules, cellular structures that form in response to environmental stress, aiding in the storage and management of untranslated mRNAs. Additionally, the human variant is implicated in the internal initiation of translation of human rhinovirus RNA, suggesting a role in microbial infection responses.
